Fiscal Note
There is no fiscal impact associated specifically with eliminating the fingerprint fee from the ordinance and providing the Police Chief with the authority to set the fee. However, the Police Department has indicated that the fee will be set at $10.00, which will result in an estmated increase of $9,000 in General Fund Revenues.
