Mayor Olivia Chow - City in a Tax Grab with the Helen Keller Centre for the Visually Impaired on Eighth St.

Amazingly, the City of Toronto is trying to undertake a tax grab from the new Helen Keller Centre on Eighth St. 

The City is trying to charge the Centre a six digit figure saying that development taxes are overdue, however the Centre maintains that these are not owed, as the building was constructed under the affordable housing initiative, for disabled and low income folks.

Let's hope that Mayor Olivia Chow and her management team come to their senses and quickly resolve this unseemly conflict.  

DASSP is looking forward to welcoming lots of new Visually Impaired park visitors throughout 2025!
