2026 Citizen of the Year: Tim Moury

Public servant, businessman, historian, and changemaker are just a few ways to describe this year’s Citizen of the Year, Tim Moury.

Moury is a lifelong Bethel Park resident and first gained an interest in holding a council position while attending a public hearing about a renovation project for Village Green Park in 1995. Moury served on Bethel Park’s Municipal Council for 28 years, spending most of his tenure as Council President.

Throughout his time on council, Moury spearheaded major community projects such as the Bethel Park Community Center, Millenium Park, a new public works facility, a new Bethel Park Volunteer Fire Company Main Station, and several others.

Currently, Moury serves as the President of the Bethel Park Historical Society. He’s overseen the restoration of the Schoolhouse Art & History Center, while also leading community campaigns to raise funds and awareness of Bethel Park’s historical sites.

Moury is also the president and CEO of Vericheck Technical Services, started by Moury and his business partners. Vericheck provides metal testing equipment and analysis services nationally, but maintains their headquarters locally in Bethel Park.

In 2024, the former Village Green Park was renamed to Moury Park in honor of Tim Moury and his 28 years of public service to the Bethel Park community.

On November 9, 2026, Mayor Jack Allen awarded Moury with the 2026 Bethel Park Citizen of the Year award.
