OSSIPEE — Just before quitting, Carroll County Sheriff's Department Capt. Robert David Meyers filed a no-trespass order against his then boss, Sheriff Christoper Conley, who says he's baffled by that order.

The variances would have allowed the property owners to leave up the structures owners either bought or built within the floodway, but not one of them was approved. In the wake of Tropical Storm Irene, which caused the worst flood on record and destroyed dozens of homes and properties, town officials are cracking down on building code violations within the floodplain. Their sights thus far have been focused on Transvale Acres, which was called the worst hit neighborhood in the state in the wake of the storm.
