What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the rateable values of two industrial warehouse units, arguing that rental evidence and comparable properties supported a lower valuation. The tribunal applied the Lotus and Delta v Culverwell principles, examining rents agreed on comparable properties. The tribunal found the respondent's comparable rental evidence, which was agreed closer to the antecedent valuation date and in the same valuation scheme, to be more persuasive than the appellant's evidence. The tribunal was satisfied that the existing assessments of £128.72 per m² and £145.00 per m² were reasonable and supported by the weight of rental evidence from comparable properties, and therefore dismissed both appeals.
