POTTSTOWN, PA – It’s nice to finally read an article in The Mercury that tells it like it happened. As we posted here several times already, Pottstown School Board member Thomas Hylton has repeatedly overstepped his elected position to vainly attempt to take matters into his own ego-centric hands. And each and every time... »

POTTSTOWN, PA – Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable. A potential business owner wants to purchase a property, make it into a business and live in the upper floors of the building. Did we mention that they’re artists? Creative folks that Pottstown desperately needs more of. So, throw in the incorrectly perceived taboo word tattoo and all... »

At last night’s general meeting of the Pottstown School Board, board member Thomas Hylton, as promised, made a motion to eliminate 10 elementary school modular units. And as the words were barely out of his mouth, Board President Rick Huss gave a verbal smackdown to Mr. Hylton. ... »
