What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant sought deletion of a multi-storey car park (174 spaces) from the rating list, arguing it was domestic property as a private garage serving residential leaseholders of London City Island under section 66(1)(c) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988. The tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding the car park could not reasonably be described as a private garage due to its large scale, shared nature, lack of individual enclosures, and operation as a managed facility under separate control, rather than being a domestic appurtenance with the characteristics of a typical private garage.
