What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the subject property should be valued at £24,500 RV rather than £61,500 RV, contending it should be placed in a different valuation scheme with a tone of £50/m² rather than £150/m². The tribunal found the comparable office properties at 27 and 31 Hyde Way in the same locality provided the best evidence, supporting the £150/m² tone adopted, and concluded the appellant had failed to produce sufficient evidence to justify the reduced assessment sought.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was an individual ratepayer, represented.
