FOI Request - Commercial Rental Cost Increases

Request 101003394570

I would like to request information on the council’s average commercial rental cost increases for tenant leaseholders over the past 20 years. This could be based on annual increases or increases based on reviews of rental agreements.

Response 03-10-2023

Based on a sample of the Council's commercial properties, our Estates Manager has assessed the average rental increase over the last 20 years which equates to an average of 4.2% per annum.
