OSSIPEE — Carroll County Commissioners haven't received many applications for the County Chief Financial Officer position but on the other hand they aren't trying very hard to find one. 

On May 5, commissioners announced the hiring of George Zoukee as chief financial officer and he was expected to start in mid June but later that month McCarthy said Zoukee wasn't coming because he said he couldn't find a place to live. Zoukee, a real estate investor from Tennessee, was supposed to replace Fergus Cullen, who started work for the county in September of last year and left in March for reasons that are still unclear.
