Last I remember, a CLASS D tower is a VFR tower..

Not necessarily.



they can only handle 1 IFR aircraft at a time, and then it is on a relayed
clearance from an IFR facility, they cannot issue or change an IFR
clearance without permission from the IFR controlling facility.


That's all true for VFR towers except for the part about handling only one
IFR aircraft at a time.



But then again, it's been more than a few years since I was on the other
side of the headset, sitting at the radar scope.


Apparently.
