A. Work In Lieu Of Fine: The judge of the court shall be empowered, in his discretion and with the consent of the defendant, to permit a person convicted and sentenced to pay a fine and costs, or either, to work for the city in lieu of the payment of such fine and costs; and in such event, the defendant shall receive credit for such voluntary work at a rate of pay per diem or per hour to be prescribed in such case by the judge. In the event the court shall fail to set forth the per diem rate of pay, the rate shall be that prescribed as the minimum wage by federal law at the time the work is performed. Such work shall be performed under the supervision of the chief executive officer of a department of the city. (1991 Code § 12-51)
B. Refusal To Pay Fine: A person fined for violation of an ordinance of the city 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 city subject to the direction of the street commissioner or other proper officials, at a rate per day as the city council may hereafter prescribe by ordinance until the fine and costs are satisfied. Until the city council shall specify otherwise, the rate shall be equal to the minimum wage prescribed by federal law. (1991 Code § 12-52)
C. Refusal To Work: All persons who shall be convicted in the court of the city for violation of any ordinance and sentenced to pay the fine and costs, who shall refuse to pay such fine or costs and refuse to work as provided herein, shall be imprisoned in the jail of the city for one day for each twenty five dollar ($25.00) fine and costs assessed, not to exceed a total confinement of ten (10) days; provided, however, that any fine and costs imposed shall be deemed fully satisfied and executed when the person convicted shall have served ten (10) days in the jail of the city. (1991 Code § 12-53; amd. 2011 Code)
D. Reimbursement Of Law Enforcement Officers Training Fund: For every person convicted of an offense punishable by a fine of ten dollars ($10.00) or more, excluding parking and standing violations, or for any person forfeiting bond when charged with such an offense, the court shall order the convicted person to pay the sum of four dollars ($4.00) as a separate penalty assessment; and for each such person convicted or forfeiting bond, the city shall deposit to the law enforcement officers training fund, as provided in 20 Oklahoma Statutes section 1313.2, the sum of four dollars ($4.00). The city treasurer or other individual designated by the city council shall deposit into the law enforcement officers training fund on a quarterly basis an amount equal to four dollars ($4.00) times the number of such fines collected by the city during the preceding quarter. If state law shall be amended to increase or decrease the amount required to be forwarded by municipalities, this subsection shall in that event be deemed to have been amended accordingly to assess the charge required by state law. (1991 Code § 12-54; amd. Ord. 2013-3, 2-12-2013)
E. Penalty: Whenever an act or omission is declared unlawful, an offense or a misdemeanor by this code or city ordinances without the declaration or proscription of a specific punishment, the same shall be punishable as provided in section 1-4-1 of this title. (1991 Code § 12-55; amd. 2011 Code)
