 9        street value of the drugs  seized  shall  be  considered.
10        "Street  value"  shall  be determined by the court on the

12        information  of a law enforcement official contained in a
13        written report as to the amount seized and  such  proffer
14        may  be  used by the court as to the current street value
15        of the smallest unit of the drug seized.
16        (c)  When a person is charged with an offense  punishable
17    by  fine  only the amount of the bail shall not exceed double
18    the amount of the maximum penalty.

20    only a fine has been imposed the amount of the bail shall not
21    exceed double the amount of the fine.
22        (e)  The  State  may  appeal  any  order granting bail or
23    setting a given amount for bail.
