NEWS: <strong>Toronto</strong> Tax Code Makes Retail Stores Vacant According to Mike Layton, son of former NDP leader Jack Layton, the way the city’s tax codes are set out leaves little or no incentive for Landlord’s to fill their vacant properties quickly. When the city offers a 30% tax break to Landlords for property that remains vacant this becomes rather an incentive to hold out for tenants who can pay more rent. “With property values being what they are … you need to command the biggest rent, and that will end up being a restaurant,” Layton explains.
