Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Cary public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee
Cary leaders were scheduled to explore a stormwater utility fee — a dedicated charge that could appear on utility bills to fund drainage maintenance, flood prevention, and stormwater infrastructure. It's still at the discussion stage, so nothing has been decided about whether residents would pay it or how much.
Town Website Accessibility and Digital Engagement
The board discussed online ADA accessibility, mobile-friendly design, website traffic tracking, and AI pilot data security guardrails with Council Liaison Lori Bush.
Open Data Portal Refresh
The town is updating its Open Data Portal to improve user access, mobile usability, and search capabilities. Board members provided feedback on accessibility, metadata descriptions, and visual design elements.
