. (a) The fire department of any city or county may annually inspect all high-rise structures for compliance with building standards and other regulations of the State Fire Marshal. If a local agency elects to perform the inspection, the results of the inspection shall be submitted to the State Fire Marshal's office in a form and manner approved by the State Fire Marshal no later than 30 days after the date of the inspection. If the local fire department elects not to conduct an inspection, the State Fire Marshal shall conduct the inspection.
  (b) A local agency which inspects a high-rise structure pursuant to subdivision (a) may charge and collect a fee for the inspection from the owner of the high-rise structure in an amount, as determined by the local agency, sufficient to pay its costs of that inspection.
  (c) If the State Fire Marshal conducts an inspection pursuant to subdivision (a), the State Fire Marshal shall determine his or her costs of the inspection and submit a claim for that amount, together with a designation of the city or county in which the inspection was conducted, to the Controller. Notwithstanding Section 11005 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, the Controller shall deduct the claimed amount from the moneys allocated pursuant to Section 11005 of the Revenue and Taxation Code to the designated city or county and transfer that amount to the State Fire Marshal to pay the costs of the inspections, and the Controller shall distribute the balance to the designated city or county.
