Some Cape services to be interrupted over weekend

Residents may pay via cash or check in the utility office at 401 Independence St. or by using the City Hall dropbox. Automated payments, bank transfers and mail payments will not be affected.

Additionally, the city's department of development services said inspection requests must be made early and only cash and check payments may be accepted Friday through Monday. No licenses or permits will be issued until the system is back online.
