GILBERT, AZ — In response to months of complaints about water rate hikes, the town of Gilbert has held a short series of listening sessions to hear from homeowners, including some who are paying hundreds of dollars more than expected.

Two sessions were held in November, with another on Wednesday, when residents gathered at the Santan Vista Water Treatment Plant.
