Commissioners adopt code amendments updating Chapter 8 references to changed statutes
Summary
The board approved revisions to Chapter 8 of the Bay County Code of Ordinances to reflect legislative changes to statutory references governing court fines and fees.
Bay County commissioners voted July 1 to adopt revisions to Chapter 8 of the county Code of Ordinances. County attorneys described the updates as a statutory reference cleanup related to court fines and fees.
The county attorney said Chapter 8 primarily addresses court fines and fees imposed to support various court-related functions and that the recent statutory change required updates to the ordinance language. There was no public comment on the item and the board approved the amendments on a roll-call vote.
Staff said the changes reflect current statute citations and do not alter the substantive application of the fees beyond bringing the ordinance into compliance with state law.
