Minutes of Gilbert City Council Meeting

Notice: This page includes an unofficial posting of the council minutes. It was developed by obtaining the official minutes from city hall, scanning them with good optical character recognition software, and recreating a page that contains the same content and is as close in format as possible to the original minutes. However, any process such as this is susceptible to errors, and we welcome people to point out discrepancies between the official minutes and the ones below so we can make corrections.
