(b) Each time an adult sex offender terminates his or her residence and establishes a new residence, he or she shall pay a registration fee in the amount of ten dollars ($10) to each registering agency where the adult sex offender establishes a new residence.

(3) The monies provided in this section and the use of the funds shall in no way diminish or take the place of any other reimbursement or other source of income established for the sheriff or the operation of his or her office.
(4) Any and all registration fees collected by a chief of police, or his or her designee, shall be deposited into the municipal general fund and made available to the affected law enforcement agency or department upon requisition of the chief law enforcement official of such agency or department and shall be used for any lawful purpose related to sex offender registration, notification, tracking or apprehension.
(5) The monies provided in this section and the use of the funds shall in no way diminish or take the place of any other reimbursement or other source of income established for the chief of police or the operation of his or her office.

Upon a second or subsequent conviction for willful failure to pay the required registration fee, the adult sex offender shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
