A Message from the Mayor

Happy 75th birthday Forest Hill! Incorporated on March 16, 1946, the City of Forest Hill has grown from a small farming community to become a robust, thriving suburb of Dallas/Fort Worth. Our Interurban Railcar stopped at Brambleton Station at the intersection of Bisbee and Shackleford Streets and was once the mode of transportation to downtown Fort Worth. It’s now replaced by cars, SUV’s and trucks transporting our residents across the Metroplex and beyond. We’ve certainly grown over the last seven decades; more businesses are opening each day in Forest Hill and our population is now well over 13,000 people – with one of our neighborhoods recently recognized as one of hottest in the 50 most populous U.S. metro areas. Our city leaders and staff, with careful planning and management, will help us to continue to flourish today and into the next century. I’m proud to serve as your Mayor and to recognize this important milestone for our city. As our slogan says, we are COMMUNITY DRIVEN and we’ll take that spirit into the future! Be well. Mayor Gerald Joubert
