Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (2) of this section, all fees collected by county officers except those collected pursuant to section 30-1-102(3) shall be paid over to the county treasurer and shall be kept by him in separate funds to be known as:

(a) The “sheriff's fee fund”;

(b) The “county clerk's fee fund”;

(c) The “county treasurer's commission and fee fund”.

(2) The revenues generated annually from the fee for committing and discharging prisoners authorized pursuant to section 30-1-104(1)(n) must be distributed as follows:

(a)(I) The county shall expend an amount equal to twenty percent of the revenues generated annually from the fee to administer a community-based treatment program for the treatment of offenders with a behavioral, mental health, or substance use disorder committed or discharged by the county if the county has established, or the board of county commissioners chooses to establish, such a community-based treatment program.

(II) For purposes of this subsection (2)(a), “community-based treatment program” means a community-based program that provides management and treatment services to persons with behavioral, mental health, or substance use disorders in the criminal or juvenile justice system, designed, at a minimum, to reduce recidivism and hospitalization of these persons.

(b) The county shall expend an amount equal to twenty percent of the revenues generated annually from the fee for training of the sheriff and deputy sheriffs and other local law enforcement officers. The training may include a crisis intervention training component to meet the needs of offenders with behavioral or mental health disorders; and

(c) The county shall expend the balance of the revenues generated annually from the fee for law-enforcement-related expenditures to defray the costs of processing prisoners into and out of custody.
