(KNZA)--Hiawatha Muncipal Court costs will be going up.
On the recommendation of Municipal Judge Mike Riley, the City Commission this week approved increasing the court costs from $75 a case to a $100 a case, effective July 1st.
Riley says the last increase was about three years ago.
He says the increase is needed because the state is raising its remittance fee for local courts and due to other court needs. Beginning July 1st, Riley says $22.50 a case will have to passed on to the state.
An ordinance will be drafted for the Commission’s approval at their next meeting implementing the Municipal Court cost increase.
