What's on this agenda

Apex's Town Council holds a short work session on the town's utility billing recovery, more than a year after a July 2024 cybersecurity incident disrupted the system. Finance staff plan to present findings from a third-party review that found the town had underbilled customers by roughly $300,000, an update on 179 customer-requested account reviews, a new billing software rollout, issues with the solar billing program, and a return to normal billing cycles including reinstated cutoffs and late fees.
