What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged assessments at 80 Coleman Street, a serviced office building, arguing that the rateable values should be reduced to reflect building works causing disturbance and that a lower tone of list valuation should be applied. The parties reached agreements in principle before the hearing and presented agreed revised valuations reducing the main rate from £395/m² to £380/m² with 4% allowance for MCC disturbance from 1 April 2017 and 8% allowance from 14 August 2017 to 15 October 2020. The tribunal ratified these agreements as presented.
