The additional $60,000 brings to $265,000 the amount that will be paid to Gephardt Group, the Atlanta-based company founded by former House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt.
Geraldine Knatz, executive director of the port, hired the firm in May for $150,000. A $55,000 contract extension was OK'd late last year.
