Please break down your cardboard. 😀

Seriously. It makes a bigger difference than you think.

Breaking down boxes saves space in your recycling bin, ensures your bin empties completely, and can even prevent fire hazards. 🔥

Loose cardboard can get caught on the truck’s exhaust during collection, especially when bins are overfilled or boxes stick out the top.

A few extra seconds at home helps keep our drivers, equipment, and community safer. ♻️

Not everything belongs in the trash. 🙃

Earlier this morning, a fire started in the back of a Gilbert garbage truck. Thanks to the quick actions of the operator and a rapid response from Gilbert Fire and Rescue, no injuries were reported and the truck was saved.

Unfortunately, incidents like this happen more often than people realize. While the exact cause of today’s fire is unknown, fires in garbage trucks are often caused by hazardous materials or batteries being thrown in the trash and igniting when compacted.

Please keep these items out of your trash and recycling containers:

• All batteries
• Cooking oil
• Pool chemicals
• E-waste
• Household cleaners
• Paint
• Auto fluids
• Propane tanks
• Other hazardous materials

Instead, bring them to Gilbert’s Household Hazardous Waste Facility for safe disposal: gilbertaz.gov/HHW

Behind every trash pickup is a dedicated crew working to keep Gilbert clean and safe. This Public Works Week, help us protect them by properly disposing of hazardous materials. 🙏

Water doesn't just appear at the tap. 💧

This National Public Works Week, we’re spotlighting the North Water Treatment Plant Reconstruction project, a major investment in Gilbert’s long-term water reliability that is now more than halfway complete.

The facility is expected to begin coming online for testing later this year, with final completion anticipated in Winter 2028.

When reconstruction is completed, Gilbert's upgraded North Water Treatment Plant will:

• Provide more than 70% of Gilbert's available water supply
• Increase production from 45 million to 60 million gallons per day
• Increase service capacity from 144,000 to 250,000 residents
• Meet or exceed local and national water standards
• Reduce Gilbert's utilization of non-renewable water resources
• Support Gilbert's projected population build-out
• Provide a 50+ year service life
• Be better equipped to address and adapt to significant water quality challenges

Your water bill directly helps invest in these improvements, ensuring Gilbert's water future for generations to come.

The Gilbert Town Council is excited to announce our next Town Manager, Mario Paniagua! 🎉

Throughout the national search process, Paniagua stood out for his strategic vision, commitment to employees and residents, and leadership style rooted in Gilbert’s values: Driven, Bold, Kind, and Humble.

Paniagua currently serves as Assistant Town Manager for the Town of Gilbert, a position he has held for more than eight months. Prior to joining Gilbert, he spent more than 27 years with the City of Phoenix, including more than 10 years as Deputy City Manager. He also held roles as Budget and Research Director, City Clerk, Special Assistant to the City Council, and Human Resources Analyst with Phoenix.

As a former Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force, he offers more than 35 years of government experience to the role.

“Mario brings exactly what Gilbert needs: steady hands, a sharp mind, and genuine care for the people he leads,” said Gilbert Mayor Scott Anderson. “His deliberate, thoughtful approach stood out throughout this process and I’m confident Mario will be an exceptional Town Manager. I’m proud and excited to have him lead Gilbert into this next chapter.”

We’re excited to welcome Mario into this role and look forward to the future of Gilbert under his leadership. 👏

Join the Gilbert Redevelopment Team for the Gilbert Northwest Redevelopment Plan Community Open House on May 14 from 6-8 PM at the McQueen Activity Center, 510 N Horne St. This fun, interactive drop-in event where Gilbert residents can explore project ideas, chat with Team Gilbert, and share their vision for the future of Northwest Gilbert.

The Northwest area of Gilbert is among the most mature in our community. Town staff have been actively evaluating population growth, employment, and development trends in this high-impact area over the past decade. Renewed focus in this section of Gilbert will play an important role in addressing signs of decline and lessening the potential impact on residents and businesses. As planning begins for Gilbert Northwest, we want to hear from our residents and share in the conversation and shape what’s next for Gilbert.

Enjoy light refreshments and take part in engaging activities.
