This bill directs the Secretary of the Interior to remove legal restrictions on about 3.62 acres at 2956 Park Avenue in Paducah, Kentucky, part of the former Paducah Memorial Army Reserve Center. The land was transferred to the City of Paducah in 2012 via quitclaim deed, but that deed included conditions, easements, and covenants limiting its use. This bill would eliminate all of those restrictions.
Residents and officials of Paducah and McCracken County, Kentucky, especially those involved in local economic development, city planning, or the future use of this specific site.
Removing the restrictions would give the City of Paducah full, unrestricted control over the property, potentially allowing it to sell, redevelop, lease, or repurpose the land in ways previously not permitted. The bill applies only to this single parcel and has no broader national impact.
