. (a) In Madera County the majority of the judges of the superior court have voted to consolidate court services and security functions in the office of the Sheriff of Madera County.
  (b) The sheriff's functions shall include, but not be limited to, providing all bailiff functions for the unified superior court in Madera County, and all other duties imposed by law upon deputy sheriffs and peace officers generally.
  (c) The sheriff shall be responsible for the service of all writs, notices, and other processes issued by any court or other competent authority. Nothing in this section shall be construed as limiting the responsibility or authority of a private person or registered process server from serving process or notices in the manner prescribed by law, nor shall it limit the authority of the sheriff or any other peace officer to serve warrants of arrest or other process specifically directed by any court to the sheriff or any other peace officer.
  (d) Each elected marshal holding office in Madera County as of January 1, 2000, shall become an employee of the Madera County Sheriff's Department in the position of sheriff's bailiff, as of that date and each elective position of Marshal of the Madera County Municipal Court District is abolished as of that date. Each marshal transferring to the sheriff's department pursuant to this section shall be compensated at not less than the EL-10 step of Salary Range 43 (table B). No transferring marshal shall lose peace officer status or be demoted or otherwise be adversely affected by the consolidation of court-related services accomplished by this section. Each transferring marshal employed in the position of sheriff's bailiff shall be deemed duly qualified for that position and no other qualifications shall be required for that employment or retention in that position. Any transferring marshal wishing to transfer to another position shall meet the qualifications of a peace officer as required by subdivision (a) of Section 832 of the Penal Code and any other requirements of the Madera County civil service system. For purposes of establishing seniority within the class of sheriff's bailiff, each transferring marshal shall be credited with the marshal' s total years of service to Madera County as a constable and marshal.
  (e) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2018, and as of that date is repealed unless a later enacted statute, which is enacted before January 1, 2018, deletes or extends that date. The repeal of this section does not affect any right or benefit to which a person was entitled on the date of repeal.
