Id take 20% price hike over noise any day. It must have been significantly noise to warrant constant complaints.

20% is a lot, but maybe residents preferred to pay more for electricity than having to deal with the noise? I wonder if they knew beforehand that the cost would increase by that much. Were there no alternative to lowering the noise other than shutting it down?
