In addition to any other penalty, assessment, or fine provided by law, there shall be levied liquidated costs in the amount of fifty dollars for partial reimbursement to state government and its subdivisions for law enforcement and judicial expenses incurred in providing the personnel, training, and facilities relative to the criminal justice system and to the 911 emergency reporting system, on each conviction for the following: (1) Violation of state statutes or regulations having criminal penalties; or (2) Violation of county or municipal ordinances. If a fine is suspended in whole or in part, the liquidated costs for law enforcement and training may not be reduced, except that the judge may waive all or any part of the payment of liquidated costs which would work a hardship on the person convicted or on the person's immediate family.
