All money collected from fines and court costs is deposited with the City treasurer’s office and credited to the City’s general fund. State mandated fees of $19 are sent to C.L.E.E.T. and O.S.B.I. The $35 bond fee is added to the initial filing of any bond, of which $25 goes to the jail entity (Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office).
