(A) If, after conviction, judgment of imprisonment is entered, a copy thereof, certified by the City Clerk, shall be delivered to the Chief of Police, the Sheriff of the county, or other appropriate police officer. Such copy shall be sufficient warrant for execution of the sentence.
(B) Any person fined for violation of a municipal ordinance who is financially able but refuses or neglects to pay the fine or costs may be compelled to satisfy the amount owed by working on the streets, alleys, avenues, areas, and public grounds of the municipality, subject to the direction of the Street Commissioner or other proper officer, at a rate per day as the governing body may prescribe by ordinance, but not less than $25 per day for useful labor, until the fine or costs are satisfied.
(C) Whenever any person is convicted in Municipal Court for violation of a municipal ordinance, the Municipal Court may order the defendant to a term of community service or remedial action in lieu of fine or in conjunction with imprisonment. If the defendant fails to perform the required community service or if the conditions of community service are violated, the Municipal Judge may impose a sentence of imprisonment, not to exceed the maximum sentence allowable for the violation for which the defendant was convicted.
