What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the 2017 rating list valuation of £79,000 RV (£145/m2) for a retail warehouse, proposing a reduction to £62,000 RV (£113.50/m2) based on comparable rents from larger units at Meteor Centre. The tribunal found that the rental evidence relied upon related to significantly larger properties, which typically attracted lower prices per m2, and that the pattern of assessments at the centre showed smaller properties commanded higher rates. The existing assessment of £145/m2 was found to be reasonable and not unreasonably high.
