Information
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
Claims in the amount of $1,302,240.88 have been audited and are presented for your approval for payment. A complete listing of the claims dated July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012 is attached to this memo as well as on file in the Municipal Court. Claims include payments to individual victims and businesses for restitution, disbursement of surcharges and revenues and return of bonds posted to ensure court appearance.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
There are no realistic options for the Council to consider because these payments are the Court's legal obligation.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Fines and forfeited bonds are submitted to the General Fund, while restitution is paid to victims, surcharges to the State and bonds are returned to defendants when warranted.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the Municipal Court payment of claims for July 1 through December 31, 2012.
