What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant appealed a transitional certificate setting the rateable value at £16,000 on 31 March 2023, contending the property's condition with only ground floor in use warranted a lower value. The tribunal found insufficient evidence to demonstrate the certified value was unreasonable; the appellant became ratepayer after the valuation date and could not evidence the property's condition at 31 March 2023, and no comparable evidence or proposed valuation was provided to support a reduction to the £13,000 sought.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was an individual ratepayer, represented.
