13a:City Contract Page and 13b: Minutes for City Commissioners: City fee structure is $25 to the company for both $75 and $125 citation fees. City and county both receive $50 out of the $75 and $100 out of the $125 citations.


Total Citations Issued : 3,565 (if paid) @ $75 = $267,375.00

City of Griffin Share @ $50: $178,250.00

Company Portion @ $25: $89,125.00


NOTE: City/Sheriff school zone speed citation fees are $75 and $125: all tickets are not $75 or $125 they are a combination of both. This just gives you a guesstimate for ALL citations at the lowest citation fee of $75.
