I do not know anyone who likes higher taxes. If taxes are to be raised, it should be for a very good purpose, such as maintaining village services, building a new pool complex, improving our schools or improving our community through stronger and new businesses. The proposed business district will help all of our businesses, thus making Morton a more attractive place to shop and conduct business. It seems the proposed implementation of a business district in Morton has caused quite a bit of discussion.  This letter is to clarify some of the misconceptions we are hearing about the district and to explain why we are in full support of this effort.

The Morton High School freshman football families would like to thank and commend our coaches for giving our sons a great season! The MHS freshman Potters, aka “Hogs,” finished their season with six wins and three losses.
