This item was approved as amended by the Economic Development and Employment, Budget and Finance, and Personnel Committees.
Subsequent to the above Committees' meetings, the U.S. Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration notified the City that it will not be awarding of $161,000 for the Citywide Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. However, the Economic Development Administration still requires the City to update its Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy on an annual basis to remain eligible for Economic Development Administration grant awards. In order to meet the Economic Development Administration requirements and in lieu of the Economic Development Administration grant, the City should allocate an additional $60,808 of already-Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds to complete the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy.
Also, the Mayor's Office has identified an additional $25,000 from the Harbor Department to study international trade issues in coordination with the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy effort. This additional $25,000, along with $25,000 already allocated from Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds, should be applied toward the contract with the Figueroa Media Group, to increase said contract to a new contract total of $144,000.
The City Administrative officer and the Chairs of the Economic Development and Employment, Budget and Finance, and Personnel Committees concur in these amendments.
THEREFORE MOVE that the following amendments be adopted:
1. Amend Recommendation 4b as follows:
Change the contract total with the Figueroa Media Group from 94,000 to $144,000.
2. Add new Recommendation 4d:
"Establish an account to deposit $25,000 of Harbor Department funds and to pay related expenditures."
3. Add new Recommendation 4e:
"Increase the Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds allocation to the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Extension by $60,808."
4. Add new Recommendation 4f:
"Allocate and expend the Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds."

Subsequent to the above Committees' meetings, the U.S. Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration notified the City that it will not be awarding of $161,000 for the Citywide Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. However, the Economic Development Administration still requires the City to update its Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy on an annual basis to remain eligible for Economic Development Administration grant awards. In order to meet the Economic Development Administration requirements and in lieu of the Economic Development Administration grant, the City should allocate an additional $60,808 of already-Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds to complete the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy.
Also, the Mayor's Office has identified an additional $25,000 from the Harbor Department to study international trade issues in coordination with the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy effort. This additional $25,000, along with $25,000 already allocated from Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds, should be applied toward the contract with the Figueroa Media Group, to increase said contract to a new contract total of $144,000.
The City Administrative officer and the Chairs of the Economic Development and Employment, Budget and Finance, and Personnel Committees concur in these amendments.
THEREFORE MOVE that the following amendments be adopted:
1. Amend Recommendation 4b as follows:
Change the contract total with the Figueroa Media Group from 94,000 to $144,000.
2. Add new Recommendation 4d:
"Establish an account to deposit $25,000 of Harbor Department funds and to pay related expenditures."

4. Add new Recommendation 4f:
"Allocate and expend the Reprogrammed Community Development Block Grant - Economic Development Administration Matching Funds."
