St. John code enforcement officers will lose badges and vehicles borrowed from the sheriff's office
Sheriff Tregre said law enforcement and code enforcement are different entities with different responsibilities.
"My deputies, fully armed and with badges, will work with code enforcement officers in any situation they might need," Tregre said. "But they deal with civil issues. We deal with criminal matters. There's no need for handcuffs, there's no need for weapons. If they need us, they will call us."
