"(c) In addition to the appropriate cash deposit amount as established above, all citations issued under this ordinance shall further specify and include as part of the deposit any penalty assessment that would be applicable under Sec. 757.05 of the Wisconsin Statutes, any jail assessment that would be applicable under Sec. 302.46(1), Wis.
