Proposals and Appeals
Lodging a Proposal
Lodging a Proposal (in writing or electronically to the address published for this purpose).
If you do not agree with the entry in the valuation roll for your property you may lodge a proposal to alter it, to the Assessor by 31st July 2023. A proposal can be made electronically through the Scottish Assessors Association Portal at https://www.saa.gov.uk/.
Alternatively you can make a proposal electronically by submitting it to appealsandwithdrawals@lanarkshire-vjb.gov.uk. Any proposal made to this email address or to our postal address (see below), must comply with the requirements of Regulation 5(1)(d) of The Valuation (Proposals Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 2022, which requires that a proposal must include all of the following information:
(i) the name and contact details of the proposer,
(ii) the date on which the proposal is made,
(iii) a copy of the valuation notice in respect of which the proposal is made or, where this cannot be provided, the address of the lands and heritages to which the entry relates and the rateable value in respect of which the proposal is made,
(iv) if the proposal is being submitted by a person who is representing the proposer, evidence that the person has the authority to represent the proposer, and the name and contact details of the person,
(v) the specific grounds on which the proposal is made,
(vi) any evidence to support the grounds of the proposal,
(vii) a statement as to how the evidence supports the grounds of the proposal,
(viii) a statement as to how the proposer wishes the assessor to alter the entry in the valuation roll, including, where relevant, the altered rateable value sought, expressed in pounds sterling, and
(ix) the date from which the proposer considers the proposed alteration should have effect.
Following the lodging of a proposal you will receive an acknowledgement by post, however please be aware that in a Revaluation year where large numbers of proposals are lodged these may take some time to be dealt with.
