The Marengo Fire Protection District was founded in 1958. MFPD covers an area of 106 square miles which is the second largest district of the state, and encompasses 17% of McHenry County. The fire district boundaries include the City of Marengo, which consists of only 4 square miles of the district, Riley Township, and portions of Coral and Seneca Townships.

The city population in 2007 was 7,536 with a projection between 9,000 and 13,000 residents by 2010. Marengo will also have great potential for growing both residentially and commercially within this time frame.
