What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a reduction in rateable values for two factory properties, arguing that the main space rates of £42.50/m² and £45/m² were excessive and should be reduced to £40/m². The tribunal examined comparable rental evidence on Bayton Road and found that while the evidence did not support a reduction to £40/m², it also did not support the existing rates. The tribunal determined that a main space rate of £42/m² (with a £2.50/m² uplift for the newer survey unit) was fair and reasonable, reducing the RV of the first property from £51,500 to £51,000 and the second from £44,750 to £42,000.
