Title
Action on Resolution 18-089, a Resolution Setting forth a Schedule of Proposed Fines for Violations of the Ordinances of the City of Brookings (2018 Fine Schedule).
Body
Summary:
A recommendation to the Council that city ordinance court costs be increased from $60.00 to $62.50 to reflect the increase made by the State of South Dakota in July of 2018.
Background:
In July of 2018, the State of South Dakota raised the court costs from $60.00 to $62.50 for all violations including local city ordinances. This resolution will set forth the schedule of fines and court costs for violations of the ordinances of the City of Brookings, bringing them in-line with the State. Court costs associated with all parking violations were not increased, therefore they will remain at $60.00 per violation.
Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact. All funds received from Brookings County are a result of the fines leveed. All court costs remain with the UJS.
Recommendation
Recommendation:
The recommendation is for the city to approve this resolution bringing the court costs associated with City Ordinance violations in line with the costs set forth by the State of South Dakota.
