Twenty-five percent of this fee is available to fund legal aid programs. As a result of this legislation, the County entered into an Agreement dated December 14, 2004, with Collier County Legal Aid. This Agreement, which was extended on June 22, 2010, was entered into pursuant to Ordinance 2004-42, which Ordinance was written in response to the legislative mandate of Section 29.008, Florida Statutes, which mandate was funded pursuant to Section 939.185, Florida Statutes. The Agreement provides that the minimum funding for Collier County Legal Aid in any given fiscal year is the greater of (1) twenty-five percent of the amount actually collected to assist Collier County in providing legal aid programs required under Section 29.008(3)(a), Florida Statutes, or (2) the amount provided from filing fees and surcharges to legal aid programs from October 1, 2002, to September 30, 2003, which was $108,309.66. Collections from the $65 fee continue to be below the agreed upon payment and require a transfer from the General Fund to make up the shortfall. Forecast FY 2017: Contractual expenditures in the amount of $158,400 ($108,400 plus an additional $50,000 that the Board of County Commissioners approved) are forecasted for FY17 and will require a transfer from the General Fund of $109,000 to make up the shortfall in filing fees and surcharges. Due to revenues declining the Board of County Commissioners approved a series of budget amendments via Agenda Item 16G5 on 06/13/17 to cover the Article V revenue shortfalls for the balance of FY 2017. Current FY 2018: Operating Expenses includes $108,400 and an additional $75,000 toward operating expenses to offset increased expenses associated with domestic violence and family law caseloads.
