There is hereby imposed a daily fee on persons sentenced to confinement in the South Central Regional Jail, when those persons have been found guilty of violating a municipal ordinance of the City. The daily fee shall be equivalent in each case to the daily rate charged to the City by the South Central Regional Jail for the person incarcerated, and shall be collected prior to any other costs, penalties or fines, and may, in the discretion of the Municipal Judge, be prorated for periods of less than a day or waived in whole or in part by the Municipal Judge. The fee is to be used to offset the costs of housing such person in the South Central Regional Jail.
