News Around Town: In March, Governor Cooper signed an Executive Order prohibiting utility companies from turning off utilities as part of COVID-19 response. In June, that Executive Order was extended through the end of July. It is not expected for the Governor to extend the order again. The moratorium included a ban for late fees, penalties, and other charges for failure to pay; and an extension for repayment plans at least six months.
