In criminal cases the surcharge must first be authorized by a county or municipal order, ordinance, or resolution.

The moneys collected from the surcharge must be use for the costs associated with the land assemblage, construction, maintenance and operation of any county or municipal judicial facility. The county or municipality shall maintain a separate account known as the "justice center fund" which is limited to the uses specified in the act.
