Editor’s note: We agree!
The Pottstown School Board is set to vote tonight on a tax break deal that would bring a new business to the Keystone Opportunity Zone.
Pottstown Borough Council has approved the tax break, but if the school board votes no, the plan is nixed.
The three boards that levy property tax — council, school board and county commissioners — must all approve it for the business to relocate to Pottstown. Montgomery County Commissioners have said they will go along with whatever the two local governing bodies decide.
As with council, we urge the school board to vote yes to this proposal as an incentive to business and as a smart move in the longer view of the borough economic development.
