What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant contended that digital displays at bus shelters should be valued using only the static bus shelter base rates from the VOA scheme, arguing that the digital mechanism should not be valued as part of the advertising right. The Valuation Officer had applied a multiplier of six to reflect the digital aspect. The tribunal found that whilst digital advertising rights are more valuable than static ones and should attract an uplift, the VO's multiplier of six was excessive and unsubstantiated. The tribunal determined that a multiplier of three applied to the VOA's static base rates was fair and reasonable.
