Utility Report-2023

04/25/2025 - The City of Gilmer is currently conducting fire hydrant testing and tank maintenance.  If you see discoloration in your water, it is from settlement in the lines. If you run your tap, and it does not clear up after a few minutes, please call us at 903-843-2552, option 0, and we will flush the main lines in your area. Chloride standards are still stable, and water is safe to drink. We have been in contact with TCEQ during this process to ensure your safety.

Fox Stephens Field Airport

Gilmer Municipal Airport

Fox Stephens Field / Gilmer Municipal Airport, was first dedicated on October 23, 1969. This was a day in which many contributed much of their time, efforts, inspiration and encouragement so that this addition to the industrial growth of our county could be made possible. The facility has served as a tool in bringing industry to this area and we have continued to encourage its use by local industry.
