According to Monticello Mayor Jason Akers, the Arkansas Department of Corrections will again be working in Monticello this week.

Inmates will be working in various areas throughout town.  They will trim back grass that has grown over the edges of city streets as well as clean overgrowth, debris and weeds from sidewalks and other areas.

The only cost of the service is providing meals to  the inmates and guards. The Mayor’s office provides those meals from the Senior Citizens Center.

The City of Monticello appreciates the staff of the Department of Corrections for their efforts in making Monticello better.
