A home incarceration sentence ordered by a municipal court pursuant to the provisions of this section is subject to the same requirements and conditions as a home incarceration sentence imposed by a circuit court or magistrate court pursuant to the provisions of this article. All home incarceration fees ordered by the municipal court pursuant to subdivision (7), section five of this article are to be paid to the municipal clerk, who shall monthly remit the fees to the sheriff.
