What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged completion notices served by the billing authority proposing completion dates of 11 October 2024 for six commercial units, contending that essential works including electric meter installation and utility connections remained outstanding. The tribunal found the properties were substantially complete with only minor cosmetic works remaining, relied on photographs from a letting advert showing the units in a completed state, and considered that the outstanding installations could reasonably be expected to be completed by the proposed date within the statutory three-month period, dismissing the appeals.
