What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellants challenged the main space rates applied to two factory properties, seeking a reduction to £40/m2. The tribunal found the existing rates of £42.50/m2 and £45/m2 excessive based on analysis of comparable rental evidence. The tribunal determined that a main space rate of £42/m2 (with a £2.50/m2 uplift for the newer survey unit at the first property) was fair and reasonable, reducing the assessments from £51,500 to £51,000 for 7 Bayton Road and from £44,750 to £42,000 for 11 Bayton Road. The tribunal noted the absence of comparable rents close to the antecedent valuation date and applied a stand-back approach to the basket of evidence.
