If any person is confined in any county jail by authority of the United States or of any state or territory other than this state or any county other than the county in which such jail is located, the sheriff, jailer, or other person in charge of the jail, shall charge and collect, in addition to the charges allowed by law for persons confined by authority of his own county, a sum necessary to fully compensate and reimburse the county for money actually and necessarily expended for fuel, light, and other expenses in the keeping of such person, including the expense of building depreciation, administration, and a reasonable charge for obsolescence of the facility and all other tangible and intangible costs, to the county. The amount of the expense shall be fixed by the board of county commissioners and collected by the sheriff or other person in charge of such jail in the manner and at the time other charges provided by law are by him collected. Upon collection of the money, the sheriff shall turn it over to the county treasurer of the county. The money collected for building depreciation, and tangible and intangible costs shall be deposited into a special jail building fund. Moneys in the special jail building fund may only be used to make capital improvements to the existing jail or for the building of a new jail.
