This amazing community is truly a great place to live, work, and play in every sense. It features a quiet and clean residential area that contains level streets of neat and well-maintained homes. The residents are entitled to the use of a centrally located and beautiful community park. The business district in the lower portion of Speers on the Monongahela River is known for its quaint shops, Riverside Village, a bustling marina, Smitty’s, and excellent dining at the Back Porch and Speers Street Grill. Moving on to industry, it contains one of the area’s largest employers, the Guttman Group, and the Speers Industrial Park, which is nearly at full capacity. Speers Borough is also home to Mon Valley Career and Technology Center, which serves several local school districts with important vocational training to high school students.
Most importantly, the community of Speers has good leadership and employees that insure its safety and high standard of maintenance, which include Mayor Bill Lee, Council President William Klamorick, Jr., Vice President Curtis Rice, Regis Carroll, Richard Baylong, Bill Krutz, Tom Monack, and Kim Heino.
