(730 ILCS 5/5-5-9) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-5-9)
Sec. 5-5-9.
Community service.
When a defendant is ordered by the
court to perform community service as a condition of his or her sentence,
the court in its discretion may appoint a non-profit organization to
administer a program of community service relating to cleaning up the
community, repairing damage, and painting buildings or other structures
defaced. The non-profit organization approved by the court may determine
dates and locations of the defendant's service, procure necessary cleaning
or other utensils for defendant to use in performing community service,
choose sites to be repainted or cleaned, and provide supervision of the
defendant's activities. A defendant participating in the program shall be
given reasonable rest periods as determined by the non-profit organization
with the approval of the court. The county sheriff or municipal law
enforcement agency may provide one or more peace officers to supervise the
program. A defendant who fails to successfully complete the community
service program established in this Section shall be subject to
resentencing as provided in this Chapter V.
