Fenton, population 226, brings in over $1 million per year through its mayor’s court, an unusual justice system in which the mayor can serve as judge even though he’s responsible for town finances.

The warrant is for skipping court. When you get a ticket you can either pay (and many places do not have online payment because they're so outdated) or take it to court. If you don't do either then you get a warrant for skipping court.
That still really stupid. I you want to take ticket to court and then don't show up the court should just rule against to automatically and charge you the administrative costs. Those should be taken from your account. This is how it works in Europe.
