1. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, if a child is committed to the custody of a regional facility for the treatment and rehabilitation of children, the juvenile court may order the county where the child has a legal residence to pay the expenses incurred for the support of the child in an amount equal to any money paid for that purpose by the Division of Child and Family Services. Such an order may not be entered if the county maintains the facility to which the child is committed.
2. This section does not prohibit the juvenile court from providing for the support of the child in any other manner authorized by law.
