Attend FREE Tactical Taxation Lecture on May 1 Organizations representing leading local and provincial architects have teamed up to present a FREE public lecture that will detail urban design principles that lead to lower taxes. The event will feature Joe Minicozzi, a Harvard-educated urbanist who has tallied the true cost of current city planning and devised a fresh take on sustainable development policies and practices. Writes Forbes magazine: "Minicozzi travels around the country to encourage municipalities to see how their downtowns, no matter how neglected, often contribute far more value in terms of tax revenue - property and sales tax combined - than even the biggest box store." The lecture, which will be followed by a panel discussion with local mayoral candidates, takes place on Thursday May 1 from 7 pm to 9 pm at the Zoetic Theatre (formerly the Music Palace), 526 Concession Street. Doors open at 6:30 pm. Visit #TacticalTax to learn more.
