FROM: JOHN SWEETEN, County Administrator - - s'� o. - s ; ` �d S • Costa DATE: MARCH 1, 2005 °srA_couKCounty ca3 SUBJECT: FIX HEARING ON CRIMINAL JUSTICE ADMINISTRATIVE (BOOKING) FEE SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. FIX Tuesday, May 17, 2005 at 9:30 a.m. for a public hearing on the proposed ordinance adjusting the Criminal Justice Administrative (Booking) Fee. 2. DIRECT the County Administrator to publish required notices and to submit to the Clerk of the Board by Tuesday, May 3, 2005 documentation for public inspection supporting the fee adjustments. BACKGROUND: On January 22, 1991, the Board adopted an ordinance establishing a criminal justice administrative (booking)fee in the amount of$127 as authorized by Chapter 29550 of the Government Code. The Board has subsequently increased the fee to $137 effective June 1, 1994, to $145 effective July 1, 1996, to $154 effective June 19, 1998, to $169 effective July 1, 2001, and to $211 effective July 1, 2003. The current fee, $211, has been in effect since July 2003 and has not been adjusted to reflect changes in operations, staffing, or cost. Government Code Section 29550 requires that any increase in the jail booking fee be adopted prior to the beginning of the fiscal year in which it will take effect and requires a 45-day written notice of a public hearing. It is, therefore, recommended that the Board of Supervisors fix the date for a public hearing on a proposed booking fee increase to allow for proper notification to the public and agencies affected by the fee.
