The general assembly shall annually establish the amount of reimbursement in the general appropriations bill, taking into consideration the information reported pursuant to subsection (4) of this section. Such reimbursement is for each day following seventy-two hours after such sentence is imposed but prior to the transmittal of the sentenced inmate to a department facility. Subject to available appropriations, the department may contract with any county or city and county for the expenses incurred by that county or city and county in the confinement and maintenance of any person who is sentenced to a term of imprisonment pursuant to section 16-11-308.5.

(1.5)

(1.7)
