Paducah commissioners approve architectural service agreement for new police station

During Tuesday night's Paducah Board of Commissioners meeting, a mnicipal order was passed to enter into an agreement for architectural and engineering design services for the city's new police department facility.

Architects Design Group was chosen from six companies who submitted professional architectural and engineering design services for a new police facility to be located at 3047 Jackson Street.   

ADG plans to partner with local firms Sherman Carter Barnhart Architects and BFW Marcum Engineering on the project. ADG specializes in public safety design and has designed more than 250 police facilities nationwide.  

The action allows city manager Daron Jordan to negotiate the scope of services, fees, and contractual terms. 

Once negotiations are complete, the proposed agreement will be brought back to the Board of Commissioners for consideration and final approval.
