What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought to alter the rating list entry on grounds that the property should be exempted from Non-Domestic rating as it was used only for storage of agricultural products from 1st April 2017. He submitted photographs as evidence. The tribunal found the appellant had not met the burden of proof, as he provided no evidence that the products stored were for his own farm use, and the tribunal accepted the Valuation Officer's position that the property was used for storage and redistribution of products to third parties such as haulage companies, which did not warrant exemption.

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