What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants (Pop Air Ltd and Expeditors International (UK) Limited) challenged rateable values based on an unadjusted base rate of £130 psm, proposing £100 psm. The tribunal examined comparable evidence including rental analysis from Heathrow Logistics Park properties, Skyline Business Park, and other warehouse assessments in the locality. The tribunal found the original £130 psm was unreasonable and adopted £110 psm as the appropriate tone, supported by rental evidence, prior tribunal decisions on adjacent units at the same business park, and settlements of comparable properties at similar rates.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Pop Air Ltd, represented.
