What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants sought a 7.5% reduction in rateable values for five retail properties in Liverpool city centre, claiming material change of circumstance due to disruption from the Liverpool City Centre Connectivity Scheme. The scheme caused restrictions to car park access and altered pedestrian flow from Lime Street. The tribunal found, however, that whilst the works caused inconvenience, alternative access routes remained available, the shopping centre remained visible and accessible via multiple entrances, and public transport remained available. The tribunal was not satisfied that the impact would deter a hypothetical tenant from bidding the same rent, and dismissed all appeals.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Glamour Forever Limited, represented.
