These kiosks will be available even on weekends and holidays. <\/p>\n<p>According to executive director Gary Camacho, CUC hopes to get the kiosks up and running sometime next month. <\/p>\n<p>It was learned during CUC\u2019s board meeting on Monday that CUC recently purchased six of these kiosks and that two of these machines will likely be given to Tinian and Rota.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate interview with Camacho after the meeting, he acknowledged CUC\u2019s ongoing issues with its customer service. \u201cThere\u2019s obviously some issues. We understand the concerns, and are going to be proactive moving forward. We have required the chief of administration to work closely with the division managers and resident directors on the other islands to try to find and correct these issues,\u201d said Camacho. He did not specify those issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019d like to put out the kiosk system so people can pay at night, or on weekends and holidays in other locations outside of CUC. We\u2019re making sure that these areas are safe, clean, and available to our consumers,\u201d Camacho added. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Commonwealth Utilities Corp. will soon be installing kiosks in safe, public places on Saipan&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55,"featured_media":348760,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[49],"class_list":["post-348703","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news","tag-cuc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348703","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/55"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348703"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348703\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/348760"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348703"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348703"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348703"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
