PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC HEARING: DATE: Monday, January 14, 2019 TIME: 4:30 pm PLACE: 2nd Floor, Apex Town Hall (73 Hunter Street) TOWN COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING: DATE: Tuesday, February 5, 2019 TIME: 7:00 pm PLACE: 2nd Floor, Apex Town Hall (73 Hunter Street) Due to an issue with the software upgrade that was done Wednesday, October 31st, the inspections center was not working properly and they were unable to access the inspections center to do inspections as they normally do.
Apex IT department worked on the situation and they proceeded with doing the scheduled inspections as soon as possible. In an attempt to catch up from the computer software problem, the Town is requesting that builders schedule the PME trade inspections all at the same time. If you can schedule these inspection at the same time it will help them streamline their inspections and save travel time in the process, with the hope of getting more in within the day. Thank you.
