subsequent violation of subsection (c) of Section 6-303 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall not require as a

conditional discharge or supervised community service, a fee of
$50 for each month of probation or conditional discharge
supervision or supervised community service ordered by the
court, unless after determining the inability of the person
sentenced to probation or conditional discharge or supervised
community service to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is made a
ward of the State under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and
court services department. The fee shall be collected by the
clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court
shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county
treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund
under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers Act.
A circuit court may not impose a probation fee under this

HB0550 Enrolled - 35 - LRB096 05686 RLC 15752 b
subsection (i) in excess of $25 per month unless: (1) the

the chief judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an
offender's ability to pay, under guidelines developed by the
Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts; and (2) the
circuit court has authorized, by administrative order issued by
the chief judge, the creation of a Crime Victim's Services
Fund, to be administered by the Chief Judge or his or her
designee, for services to crime victims and their families. Of
the amount collected as a probation fee, up to $5 of that fee
collected per month may be used to provide services to crime
victims and their families.
This amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly deletes
the $10 increase in the fee under this subsection that was
imposed by Public Act 93-616. This deletion is intended to
control over any other Act of the 93rd General Assembly that
retains or incorporates that fee increase.
(i-5) In addition to the fees imposed under subsection (i)
of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation department
has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined in the Sex
Offender Management Board Act), the court or the probation
department shall assess additional fees to pay for all costs of
treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and treatment, and
monitoring the offender, based on that offender's ability to

HB0550 Enrolled - 36 - LRB096 05686 RLC 15752 b
pay those costs either as they occur or under a payment plan.
(j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any
violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a similar
provision of a local ordinance, shall be collected and
disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section 27.5
of the Clerks of Courts Act.
(k) Any offender who is sentenced to probation or
conditional discharge for a felony sex offense as defined in
the Sex Offender Management Board Act or any offense that the
court or probation department has determined to be sexually
motivated as defined in the Sex Offender Management Board Act
shall be required to refrain from any contact, directly or
indirectly, with any persons specified by the court and shall
be available for all evaluations and treatment programs
required by the court or the probation department.
(l) The court may order an offender who is sentenced to
probation or conditional discharge for a violation of an order
of protection be placed under electronic surveillance as
provided in Section 5-8A-7 of this Code.

related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
organized gang or was motivated by the defendant's membership
in or allegiance to an organized gang; or (2) is a violation of
