Apply for a business rates discretionary reduction
The Council has the discretionary power to reduce the payment of your business rate bill by granting a discretionary reduction.
The primary purpose of awarding a discretionary reduction is to provide short-term assistance to businesses suffering unexpected hardship from circumstances beyond the business’s control and outside of the normal risks associated with running a business of that type.
50% of this relief is paid by the government and 50% by local taxpayers from council tax. Therefore, we must satisfy ourselves that granting a reduction is in the interests of local Council Tax payers.
