The wrinkles only go where the smiles have been.

The End of an Era

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 fo 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.
