Appeals to Special Sessions.
4. Three notices of appeal to Special Sessions against the
Valuation List were received by the Committee, viz.:-
(a) From Mr. A. Churchman, in respect of 16 King Street.
(b) From Mr. J. B. Mulholland, in respect of " The
King's Theatre."
(c) From Mr. H. H. Bartlett, in respect of 1 to 15
Addison Court Gardens.
Mr. Churchman's appeal came before the Kensington
Special Sessions on the 5th December, 1905, and was dismissed
on the ground that the notice did not set out the correction
desired to be made as required by Section 33 of the Valuation
(Metropolis) Act, 1869.
Mr. Mulholland's appeal was, with consent, withdrawn, the
appellant having notified his intention to appeal to the Quarter
Sessions.
In Mr. Bartlett's appeal, terms were agreed between the
parties, and were confirmed by the Court, whereby a small
additional allowance was made to the appellant in respect of
landlord's outgoings.
