(725 ILCS 180/1) (from Ch. 105, par. 331)
Sec. 1.

In all actions for the violation of any ordinance of any board of public
park commissioners, organized under any general or special law of this
state, the first process shall be a summons. However a warrant for the
arrest of the offender may issue in the first instance upon the affidavit
of any person that any such ordinance has been violated, and that the
person making the complaint has reasonable grounds to believe the party
charged is guilty thereof; and any person arrested upon such warrant shall,
without unnecessary delay, be taken before the proper judicial officer in
the county within which is situated the park system under the control of
any such board of public park commissioners, to be tried for the alleged
offense. Any person upon whom any fine or penalty shall be imposed may,
upon the order of the court before whom the conviction is had, be committed
to the county jail or the city prison, house of correction, or other place
in said county, provided by such public park commissioners, or as may be
designated by them, for the incarceration of such offenders until such
fine, penalty and costs shall be fully paid. However no such imprisonment
shall exceed six months for any one offense. Every person so committed
shall be required to work at such labor as his or her strength will permit,
within and without such prison, house of correction or other place provided
for the incarceration of such offenders, as aforesaid, not to exceed ten
hours each working day; and for such work the person so employed or worked
shall be allowed, exclusive of his or her board, the sum of fifty cents for
each day's work on account of such fine and costs.
