[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of Dorchester
County: Art. I, 3-4-1986 as Ord. No. 118.
Amendments noted where applicable.]
[Adopted 3-4-1986 as Ord. No. 118]
[Amended 6-22-1993 by Ord. No. 224]
The Clerk of the Circuit Court of Dorchester County shall charge an
additional fee of twenty-five dollars ($25.) to applicants for marriage licenses,
which fee shall be used to fund a local program to deal with domestic violence.
A.
The Clerk of Court shall disburse the additional fee
collected on a monthly basis to the County Treasurer for payment to the Mid-Shore
Council on Family Violence, Inc. The County Treasurer shall disburse accrued
funds to the Mid-Shore Council on a quarterly basis; provided, however, that
the Mid-Shore Council on Family Violence, Inc., shall use said funds to help
provide the basic needs (food, shelter and clothing) of Dorchester County
citizens who are victims of such violence and that the Mid-Shore Council shall
report to the County Commissioners of Dorchester County, at each annual budget
session, the economic details relating to its programs and the use of the
funds made available as a result of this chapter.
B.
If the Mid-Shore Council on Family Violence,
Inc., should cease to exist or fail to expend its funds as required hereby,
the County Treasurer shall hold all accrued funds until the County Commissioners
of Dorchester County approves a successor organization to administer domestic
violence programs.
