May 24, 2007, Introduced by Rep. Meadows and referred to the Committee on Appropriations.
A bill to amend 1935 PA 120, entitled
"An act to prescribe a method for the fingerprinting of residents
of the state, and to provide for the recording and filing thereof
by the central records division of the department of state police,"
by amending section 3 (MCL 28.273), as amended by 2004 PA 359.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Sec.
3. (1) The department of state police may charge a fee ,
not
to exceed $15.00, or, until October 1, 2007, not to exceed
$30.00,
in an amount determined under
subsection (2) for taking and
processing the fingerprints and completing a criminal record check
of a resident of this state when the impression of the fingerprints
are requested for employment-related or licensing-related purposes.
A fee shall not be collected under this section if a fee for taking
and processing fingerprints is provided for under any other law.
The fee shall not exceed the actual cost of taking and processing
the impression of the fingerprints and completing a criminal record
check on that person. The fee shall be collected and forwarded to
the state police by the licensing body or the employer.
(2) Until September 30, 2007, the fee charged under this
section is $30.00. Beginning October 1, 2007, and annually on that
date for each subsequent year, the department of state police shall
adjust the fee by an amount determined by the state treasurer to
reflect the cumulative annual percentage change in the Detroit
consumer price index, rounded to the nearest dollar.
(3) (2)
The department of state police
shall submit a written
report to the secretary of the senate and the clerk of the house of
representatives by October 1 of each year stating whether the fee
increase
provided under the amendatory act that added this
subsection
charged under this section,
as adjusted annually under
subsection (2), is sufficient to support the actual costs of
fingerprinting and what the actual costs of fingerprinting are.
