Canton Municipal Court Community Service Road Crew
The Community Service Department at the Canton Municipal Court offers the Judges a community-based sanction for misdemeanor offenders as an alternative to a jail sentence. The Court operates their Road Crew supervised by two of its own Court Employees.
Offenders sentenced to the Road Crew perform duties such as litter control; tire collection; removal of debris of nuisance properties; and lawn maintenance/snow removal services for elderly citizens within the Court's jurisdiction.
The Court’s philosophy is that an offender performing work service within their community not only serves to repay a debt; but allows the offender to have a personal investment in bettering their community.
