dangerous crimes; children; probation revocation

SB 1709 requires Arizona courts to impose a mandatory $65 monthly fee for adults on probation (unless the court determines they cannot pay), with fees collected to fund adult probation services. It adds provisions allowing remote reporting for probationers to accommodate work, family care, or treatment needs, and establishes a process for transferring probation supervision between counties under specific conditions. The bill also clarifies that probation fees must be paid to county treasurers for the adult probation services fund, not to courts directly. It directly affects individuals placed on probation in Arizona, particularly those in supervised probation programs, by adding this financial obligation and modifying reporting requirements. The bill does not change probation revocation rules for dangerous crimes involving children, as its title suggests, but focuses on administrative and fee-related procedures.
