Amount. A fee of twenty dollars ($20.00) per month shall be imposed on each probationer who is placed on probation by a county circuit court or the county municipal court.

(c)

Collection. The amount levied under subsection (b) of this section will be collected on a monthly basis by the county treasurer; a receipt will be given by the treasurer to the probationer, who will present such receipt to his probation officer as proof of payment. Funds collected by the treasurer shall be deposited in the county general fund.
