Committee recommends small increases to LiveScan fingerprint fees effective Oct. 1

On a motion by Commissioner Bryan Zender, supported by Commissioner Kevin Knisely, the Committee recommended to the full board that Community Corrections increase LiveScan fingerprinting fees effective October 1, 2026. The proposed increases are: $70 for applicants living inside Lapeer County (up from $67), $75 for applicants living outside the county but working in Lapeer (up from $72), and $80 for applicants living and working outside Lapeer (up from $77). The minutes say the changes are due to fee increases passed down from the FBI and Michigan State Police.
