(a) Any person convicted of an offense under these Codified Ordinances which results in such person's incarceration shall pay to the City the actual costs incurred by the City in housing such person in a jail facility. Such costs shall include pre-conviction and post-conviction incarceration.
(b) The Mayor, if presiding over the Mayor's Court, or the Mayor's Court Magistrate appointed by the Mayor to preside over the Mayor's Court, may waive all or part of the incarceration costs where, because of the indigence of the person sentenced, the payment of the costs would work an unreasonable hardship on the person convicted, his or her immediate family or any other person who is dependent on such individual for financial support, or for such other reason as the Mayor or the Mayor's Court Magistrate may deem appropriate.
(c) In the event of nonpayment of any costs which have not been waived, the City may seek to collect payment in any manner permitted by law for enforcement of a debt.
