Community service hours are ordered through the Judges of Fairfield County Municipal Court, a program funded through a grant provided by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections.

The community service probation officer organizes jobs and supervises workers who are on probation, or bond through Fairfield County Municipal Court, in an effort to reduce the number of individuals going to jail, or to receive a lesser charge.  BMV reinstatement fees can also be worked off through the program if the Judge approves it through the Courts.

Jeff McCartney has been with the probation department since 2017.  Jeff took over the community service program in January 2021.  He has a great collaboration with all city and county departments for projects, problem areas with trash and litter to be resolved, and any concerned citizens of the county/city that call in to report a possible problem area.  This program provides an opportunity for individuals on probation to make a positive impact in their community.

Requesting entities need to meet ONE of the following criteria:

  • Public School
  • Church
  • Not-For-Profit
  • County Agency
  • City Agency
Agencies are encouraged to call Jeff McCartney at (740) 277-9415 or email at jmccartney@fcmcourt.org.
