Figures are as stated in the decision, and are values in the 2017 list; a dash means the document does not state that figure.

What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant, a small retail business operator, sought a reduction in rateable value from £26,750 to £9,000, arguing that the valuation was based on occupation by large chains and did not reflect current market conditions or the declined state of the town. However, the tribunal found the proposal invalid because the appellant specified an alteration date of 1st January 2019 when the actual alterations had been made on 12th November 2018 and 13th February 2019, contrary to the requirement under the Non-Domestic Rating (Alteration of Lists and Appeals) (Wales) Regulations 2005 to identify the correct alteration date.
