All Felixstowe town centre traders urged to apply for rates rebate NOW
All Felixstowe town centre traders urged to apply for rates rebate NOW
It is now imperative that those affected by the works in Hamilton Road (& surrounding area) apply for the rebate now.
Following conversations with Suffolk Coastal District Council we have been advised that although some traders have lodged appeals but in order for these to be successful WE NEED ALL TRADERS to apply as well. The Valuation Office will require some documentary evidence of loss of earnings whilst work was going on.
The Valuation office is hoping that the appeal process and decisions are reached within the calendar year. If however there is no agreement then the cases could be referred to the tribunal service sometime in the New Year.
PLEASE ACT NOW! PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO ANY TOWN CENTRE TRADER YOU KNOW.
For more detailed information refer to the attached letter. The link to the application form can be found at http://www.voa.gov.uk/business_rates/2010_proposal.pdf
