Paducah Public Information Officer Pam Spencer says the building will close for at least two weeks in an effort to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus. City services will continue; however, those needing to contact the city should use other means including phone, email, or online.
City Manager Jim Arndt says the decision to close was based on the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's recommendation that people practice of social distancing to slow the spread of the potentially deadly virus.
The general information phone number for City government is 270-444-8800. During normal business hours, a customer experience representative will take your call and guide you to the appropriate department or service.
Those needing to drop off a payment to the Finance Department can use the drop-box that is on the front of the 5th Street side of the building.
If you need a permit through the Fire Prevention Division, call Fire Prevention at 270-444-8527. Information will be taken over the phone with payments through the drop-box outside the building. Permits then will be emailed to the permit holder. Regarding plans that need to be reviewed, please send them digitally if possible.
