create a graffiti reward and abatement fund. The money in the fund must be used

a person who violates a county ordinance that prohibits graffiti or other defacement
of property.
2. When a defendant pleads or is found
guilty or guilty but mentally ill of violating a county ordinance that
prohibits graffiti or other defacement of property, the court shall include an
administrative assessment of $250 for each violation in addition to any other
fine or penalty. The money collected must be paid by the clerk of the court to
the county treasurer on or before the fifth day of each month for credit to the
graffiti reward and abatement fund.
3. If sufficient money is available in the
graffiti reward and abatement fund, a county law enforcement agency may offer a
reward, not to exceed $1,000, for information leading to the identification,
apprehension and conviction of a person who violates a county ordinance that prohibits
graffiti or other defacement of property. The reward must be paid out of the
graffiti reward and abatement fund upon approval of the board of county
commissioners.
