Flower (VO) v Clarke
Language: English Series: Rating Appeals ; 1994 RA 66-72(7)Publication details: 1994Subject(s): Summary: LT 21 February 1994. A lock up shop and premises was assessed at a rateable value of £3,300. It comprised a shop area, a kitchen and wc and formed part of a small courtyard development of three shops. The VO asked for the reinstatement of the rv of £4,000, based on a Zone A of £140 psm, which he said was supported by the rents of the other shops. The ratepayer contended that these rents were not comparable due to one shop being larger than the one in question and the rent being above market value due to an urgent need to acquire premises. The assessment was confirmed on the grounds that Zone B should be used for part of the premises reducing the rv to £3,300 due to the use of comparables.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
