What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant sought deletion of 12 industrial units from the 2017 rating list, arguing they were in such poor repair as to be incapable of beneficial occupation by the material date of 30 June 2019. The tribunal found insufficient evidence to demonstrate the condition on the material date, noting the units had only recently been vacated by tenants and internal photos showed them when occupied. The tribunal concluded that while the September 2023 costs report included improvement works rather than essential repairs, there was no compelling evidence the units had deteriorated to the point of being incapable of industrial use by 30 June 2019.
