If the State of California appropriates at least thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000.00), the county shall not impose a booking fee to any city, school district, community college district, college or university. The county establishes a local detention facility revenue account to receive funds from the state annual appropriation.

For the 2007-2008 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, in accordance with Government Code Sections 29551(b)(1) and (2), if a state appropriation for the purposes specified in Government Code Section 29552 is made in any fiscal year, a county may charge a jail access fee to a local agency that exceeds that agency's three-year average number of non-felony bookings for specified violations at a rate not to exceed the actual cost of booking an arrested person into the local detention facility, for each booking in excess of the three-year average. A local agency's three-year average number of non-felony bookings shall be recalculated each year.

The county shall determine a local agency's three-year average based on the following violations:

1. Municipal code violations;

2. Misdemeanor violations, except driving under the influence offenses and domestic violence misdemeanor offenses, including enforcement of protective orders.

The jail access fee charges to an agency shall be calculated and billed on a monthly basis, and all revenue derived from the jail access fee shall be deposited by the county into the local detention facility revenue account. The county shall fully disclose the costs allocated as Federal Circular A-87 overhead in the jail access fee.

B. For the 2007-2008 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, if the state appropriates less than thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000.00), the county may collect fees pursuant to Government Code Sections 29550 and 29550.3 up to a rate, in proportion to how much the appropriation is less than thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000.00).

However, the maximum rate of the fee shall be the rate charged by the county as of June 30, 2006, increased for each subsequent year by the California Consumer Price Index as reported by the Department of Finance plus one percent, compounded annually. The county shall fully disclose the costs allocated as Federal Circular A-87 overhead.

C. Pursuant to Government Code Section 29551(d), a county may submit an invoice to a city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university for the fee imposed pursuant to this section on and after July 1, 1990 only if the state appropriates less than thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000.00) and only to the proportion to the amount that is less than appropriated.

D. Pursuant to Government Code Section 29550, a criminal justice administrative fee is imposed upon a city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university, for the booking or other processing of persons arrested by an employee of that city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university, where the arrested persons are brought to the county jail for booking or other processing in the proportionate amount effective July 1, 2007, in the event the state appropriates less than thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000.00).

E. The amount of the fee set forth in subsection D of this section does not exceed one-half the actual administrative costs, including applicable overhead costs permitted by Federal Circular A-87 Standards, as defined in subdivision (d) of Government Code Section 29550, incurred in the booking or other processing of arrested persons. Any increases in a fee pursuant to Government Code Section 29550 shall be adopted by the county prior to the beginning of its fiscal year and may be adopted only after the county has provided each city, special district, school district, community college district, college district or university forty-five (45) days' written notice of a public meeting held pursuant to Government Code Section 54952.2 on the fee increase and the county has conducted the public hearing.

F. For the purposes of this section, an "employee" shall include any person making an arrest on behalf of the city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university.

G. The fee will apply to all arrests resulting in booking or detention at a county jail on or after July 1, 1990.

H. A city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university shall not be charged the criminal justice administrative fee set forth herein for any of the following:

1. An arrest on any bench warrant for failure to appear in court, nor any arrest warrant issued in connection with a crime not committed within the entity's jurisdiction;

2. For a person who is ordered by a court to be remanded to the county jail;

3. For arrests made pursuant to arrest warrants originating outside of its jurisdiction;

4. For parole violation arrests or probation order returns to custody unless a new charge has been filed for a crime committed in the jurisdiction of the arresting city, district, college or university, in the event that the Governor declares a state of emergency, no agency shall be charged fees for any arrests made during any riot, disturbance, or event that is subject to the declaration referred to herein;

5. For the arrest of a prisoner who has escaped from a county, state or federal detention or corrections facility;

6. For arrestees held in temporary detention at a court facility for purposes of arraignment when the arrestee has been previously booked at an entity detention facility;

7. As a result of an arrest made by an officer of a city, special district, school district, community college district, college or university assigned to a formal multi-agency task force in which the county is a participant; for the purposes of this section, "formal task force" means a task force that has been established by written agreement of the participating agencies.

I. It is the intent of the board of supervisors to exercise its statutory authority to impose a criminal justice administrative fee to the maximum extent permissible. If any provision of this section or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this section which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or applications and to this end the provisions of this section are severable.

J. In the event that the State of California, prior to June 30, 1991, provides a stable source of fundings specifically stated to replace such criminal justice administrative fees that would have been recovered under this section, the county shall rescind this section.

(Ord. 882 §§ 1—4, 2008)

A. Findings. The board of supervisors finds that the current fee charged by the county to prepare written findings of fact in assessment appeals does not adequately compensate it for expenses incurred. Given the number of applications for changed assessment pending, the financial impact on the county will be substantial if the fee is not increased.

B. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to increase the fee for preparing written findings of fact set forth in the Rules of Notice and Procedure of the Assessment Appeals Boards of the County of Riverside.

C. Authority. This section is adopted pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code section 1611.5 which authorizes counties to impose a reasonable fee to cover the expense of preparing findings of fact in assessment appeals.

D. Fee for findings of fact. The fee for preparing written findings of fact shall be five (5) times the hourly billing rate of the office of county counsel for each application for changed assessment. When two (2) or more applications for changed assessment have been consolidated for hearing because they involve contiguous or adjacent parcels, the same owner or other similar issues, the assessment appeals board may allow the payment of a single application fee if it determines that the consolidated applications can be resolved with a single set of written findings of fact. When the assessment appeals board does not make this determination in consolidated applications, a separate fee shall be paid for each application for changed assessment. In no event, however, shall the total fees paid exceed an amount equal to fifteen (15) times the hourly billing rate of the office of county counsel.
