What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought to reduce the rateable value from £224,000 (at £20/m²) to £191,000 (at £17/m²), arguing that the adopted rate was excessive based on reductions seen in comparable properties between the 2010 and 2017 lists. The tribunal found that the £20/m² rate was appropriate given the size of the subject property (10,315 m²) and was supported by comparable evidence, particularly Unit 9 Park Springs which showed that larger properties attracted lower per-m² rates in accordance with the valuation scheme's size matrix. The panel dismissed the appeal as the appellant had failed to provide convincing evidence supporting a reduction.
