______________________________________________________________

RESOLVED, by the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Mateo, State of California, that:

 

WHEREAS, Counties are granted the authority to impose fees for the booking of inmates into County detention facilities, and San Mateo County has historically imposed said fees on an annual basis;

 

WHEREAS, in 1994 a joint City/County committee met and agreed upon the basic booking fee rates and computation methodology used in determination of the booking fee, and said methodology has been followed since that time consistent with statutory requirements and changes; and

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors originally adopted a booking fee of $159 for FY 1994-95, and has periodically adjusted said fee to reflect cost of living adjustments and other changes in the booking function; and

 

WHEREAS, booking fees have been calculated based on periodic cost studies completed in accordance with relevant statutes by Maximus, Inc., a certified and experienced public accountancy firm, and the proposed fee has been calculated and reflects actual increased costs of 5% for booking of inmates, in accordance with statutory requirements; and

 

WHEREAS, affected and interested parties, including all County police departments, have been advised and noticed of the public meeting to consider this fee, in accordance with Section 29550 and 54952.2 of the Government Code; and

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors originally adopted a booking fee of $159 for FY 1994-95, and has periodically adjusted said fee to reflect cost of living adjustments and other changes in the booking function; and

 

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY DETERMINED AND ORDERED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, COUNTY OF SAN MATEO, THAT:

The FY 2003-04 Sheriff's Office Booking Fee is established at $202 effective July 1, 2003, for the period from said date through June 30, 2004, and the Clerk of this Board shall attest the President of this Board's signature thereto.
