East side of town on Rt. 20.

They sit in an empty parking lot near the Road Ranger Gas Station shooting both directions. They also sit along the road by Joe’s Place and speed check coming into town 50 mph down to 35mph in a very short distance.

I regularly travel through Marengo.I was once stopped there & almost given a ticket for my sunglasses hanging on rear view mirror(hampering my vision?) I asked her(the officer) if her radar unit on her dash board was blocking her vision. No ticket was issued.From what i under stand ,officers are under orders to ticket for a 1m.p.h. violation! My way of getting back is not to spend a cent in Marengo. Even if given the $ i wouldn't spend it ther. I'd like to see everyone passing through Marengo refuse to spend any $ there. I'd also like Police Chief to explain his policies to the local businesses that would dry up due to the gestapo tactics. They do this @both ends of town. They also have a hiding spot on one of the side streets S. of railroad av.They are separated from R.R.av by the tracks but any W. bound traffic hits the dead end & must turn left & guess who's waiting when they turn?Yep! Marengo cops are a real classy bunch.
