What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant contended that the Zone A valuation of £150/m² was excessive compared to other properties on Wind Street valued at £110/m² and £165/m², and sought a reduction to £6,930. The tribunal found that rental evidence from the subject property and a comparable property (22 Wind Street) both analysed to support the £150/m² zone value adopted by the Valuation Officer, and dismissed the appeal as the appellant had not demonstrated the zone value was excessive or unfair.

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