13 Costs collected under this Section shall be paid into the Tax
14 Compliance and Administration Fund.

28 resources, information systems, case review and
29 permanency planning systems to avoid the duplication of
30 services.

6 services with other criminal justice agencies within its
7 jurisdiction, including but not limited to, the State's
8 Attorney, the Sheriff and any municipal police

15 services.
16 (b) The probation officer, in order to be eligible
17 for State reimbursement, is receiving a salary of at
18 least $17,000 per year.
19 (c) The probation officer is appointed or was
20 reappointed in accordance with minimum qualifications or
21 criteria established by the Supreme Court; however, all
22 probation officers appointed prior to January 1, 1978,
23 shall be exempted from the minimum requirements
24 established by the Supreme Court. Payments shall be made
25 to counties employing these exempted probation officers
26 as long as they are employed in the position held on the

28 Promotions shall be governed by minimum qualifications
29 established by the Supreme Court.
30 (d) The Department has an established compensation
31 schedule approved by the Supreme Court. The compensation
32 schedule shall include salary ranges with necessary
33 increments to compensate each employee. The increments
34 shall, within the salary ranges, be based on such factors
-60- LRB093 02818 SJM 17306 a
1 as bona fide occupational qualifications, performance,
2 and length of service. Each position in the Department

9 least the same number of probation officers and probation
10 managers as were authorized for employment for the fiscal
11 year which includes January 1, 1985. This number shall be
12 designated as the base amount of the Department. No positions
13 approved by the Division under paragraph (b) of subsection 4
14 will be included in the base amount. In the event that the
15 Department employs fewer Probation officers and Probation
16 managers than the base amount for a period of 90 days,
17 funding received by the Department under subsection 4 of this
18 Section may be reduced on a monthly basis by the amount of
19 the current salaries of any positions below the base amount.
20 (9) Before the 15th day of each month, the treasurer of

31 its designee shall verify compliance with this Section and
32 shall examine and audit the monthly statement and, upon
33 finding them to be correct, shall forward them to the
34 Comptroller for payment to the county treasurer. In the case
-61- LRB093 02818 SJM 17306 a
1 of payment to a treasurer of a county which is the most
2 populous of counties sharing the salary and expenses of a
3 Probation and Court Services Department, the treasurer shall
4 divide the money between the counties in a manner that
5 reflects each county's share of the cost incurred by the
6 Department.

8 received under this Section shall be used solely to maintain
9 and improve Probation and Court Services. The county or
10 circuit shall remain in compliance with all standards,
11 policies and regulations established by the Supreme Court. If
12 at any time the Supreme Court determines that a county or
13 circuit is not in compliance, the Supreme Court shall
14 immediately notify the Chief Judge, county board chairman and
15 the Director of Court Services Chief Probation Officer. If
16 after 90 days of written notice the noncompliance still
17 exists, the Supreme Court shall be required to reduce the
18 amount of monthly reimbursement by 10%. An additional 10%
19 reduction of monthly reimbursement shall occur for each
20 consecutive month of noncompliance. Except as provided in
21 subsection 5 of Section 15, funding to counties shall
