The Village of New Rome, Ohio, one of the most notorious speed traps in the country, is no more, dissolved in September of last year. But the village left behind a number of debts. An auction was held a few days ago to help pay off those debts.
The sale of village property raised just over $50,000. Half of that came from the two lots the village offices occupied. The rest came from the sale of the triple-wide trailer ($11,000), the two police cruisers (about $8,000), an old church pew used by the police department ($1,350), and miscellaneous office equipment.
Good riddance.
