You can either change owner or make it readable to more than just root. I
don't see this as a security problem.
Plus, as

This can be accomodated with logrotate configuration if that is also
rotating your user's file which I don't know. Look in /etc/logrotate.d for
the apache file. You can change owner, chmod etc. in that file.
