    State Police Fines Allocation

    State Police Fines Allocation

    Senate Bill 237 changes the distribution of State Police fines and penalties (SPF) payments to municipalities. The changes are:

    • Any fines received as a result of citations issued on interstates will no longer be allocated to municipalities.
    • Remaining fines received will be allocated to eligible municipalities in accordance with the previously used SPF Allocation formula.

    To be eligible to receive the SPF allocation of the fines, a municipality must:

    • Have a population less than 3,000 or;
    • Provide at least 40 hours per week of local police services

    If you have questions regarding your eligibility to receive the SPF Allocation, contact the PA State Police at 717-783-9772.
