$3,506,315.72 in wire warrants))
4. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 6009A-1 to the
agreement with Buffalo Computer Graphics for an additional $400,000 for a total
contract amount of $592,099.23, which will match the contract total to the total
amount awarded through the grant to provide crisis management software,
authorize the acceptance of an additional $100,000 in grant funds from the 2019
State Homeland Security Grant Program and appropriate $100,000 to expense
account 124-400-3202-3769 (Homeland Security Grant Program) and $100,000
to revenue account 124-300-3202-3769 in recognition of the reimbursable grant
funds
(Fiscal Impact: The City of El Segundo has been allocated an additional
$100,000 towards the emergency management crisis management software
project in the 2019 State Homeland Security Grant Program ("SHSGP") funding,
which is passed to the local area through the County of Los Angeles via a Sub -
Recipient agreement. This additional funding supports year two of the project that
further develops the training and response readiness of Los Angeles County.
While the grant does not provide upfront funding, municipalities submit
reimbursement requests to the grant administrator (Los Angeles County) after
expenditures are made and processed for payment. Approved requests are then
reimbursed by the County. If funds are not used from the 2019 grant, they will not
be reallocated for City use. Thus, it's important for the City to expend its full
allocation.)
5. Adopt Resolution No. 5301 approving a Memorandum of Understanding with
Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, and Hermosa Beach for Utilization of
Measure H Grant Funding for Homelessness Case Management Services.
(Fiscal Impact: None)

year budget to extend the scanning services agreement with Matrix Imaging, Inc.
through FY 2021-2022. The remaining balance of $45,921 will be included in the

PULLED ITEM:
7. Proposed Los Angeles Chargers Headquarters and Training Facility Development
and Raytheon Storage Facility Relocation Project Development Agreement and
Ordinance second reading (2000 E. El Segundo Boulevard)
(Fiscal Impact: As proposed, development of this project and relocation of the
storage facility will have limited financial benefit to the City's General Fund. The
2015 Gross Fiscal Impact and Economic Benefit Analysis for the overall El
Segundo South Campus Specific Plan (ESSCSP) estimated a possible General
Fund annual revenue increase of up to $2,600,000 at theoretical buildout of the full
ESSCSP area. After the proposed project is developed, the maximum future
recurring General Fund revenue amount will be lower than initially estimated due to
this proposed use not being a more traditional office building and/or retail
development. The proposed Development Agreement Amendment includes three,
one-time contributions of $1,000,000 for a total of $3,000,000 to be deposited into
the City's General Fund to be used to support the Plunge swimming pool
rehabilitation capital improvement project.)
