The Public Utilities Commission approved a PG&E rate hike Thursday that will add about $5 a month to the average bill and it could begin as soon as next month. Before the approval, the panel heard from a string of ratepayers and critics – some chanting “Stop the Rate Hikes!” – complaining about the hike.

"It's small, but there is a whole line up of small increases on the table," said Mark Toney, executive director of the TURN ratepayer group.
