What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the rateable values for two large distribution warehouses should be reduced to £62.50/m², relying principally on Unit 5 Tamworth Logistics Park, Plot E3 Birch Coppice and assessed properties at Magna Park. The tribunal preferred the Valuation Officer's evidence of £65/m², finding that the local rental evidence from Birch Coppice, Tamworth Logistics Park and surrounding properties was more comparable, and that Unit 5 required caution due to uncertainty over the incentive structure. The tribunal concluded that the existing valuations at £65/m² were reasonable and the appeals were dismissed.
