ALLEGHENY COUNTY
Pretrial Services Department Ignition Interlock Fees; No. AD-2012-122-CR
[42 Pa.B. 3440]
[Saturday, June 16, 2012]
Order of Court And Now, to-wit, this 11th day of May, 2012, upon review of the request to increase Ignition Interlock fees, the court finds the following:
1. That the court established an ignition interlock program in 2001.
2. That the ignition interlock program has not amended its fees since the inception of the program in 2001.
3. That the Pretrial Services Department expends significant time and resources administering its ignition interlock program, and the costs associated with administering this service have increased significantly. Examples of rising costs include rent increases at the interlock office and the addition of a full-time interlock program coordinator.
4. That the ignition interlock program is a safe, cost-effective alternative to other transportation methods for offenders in Allegheny County, and said ignition interlock program provides a significant benefit to those who utilize the program.
5. That the court, through the Pretrial Services Department, can no longer continue to administer the ignition interlock program under the current fee structure, and that it is fair and reasonable to assess the amended ignition interlock fees against offenders for the purpose of more effectively defraying the costs of administering the ignition interlock program.
It is, therefore, Ordered that the following ignition interlock fee schedule be and is hereby adopted, and shall be effective thirty days after publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and applied only to offenders sentenced or placed on ARD on or after the publication requirement has been satisfied.
