    Council tax

    Do empty businesses. Shops, garages, public houses, large commercial buildings pay Council Tax?

    I am a landlord, so run a business. If a house is empty for more than a month I have to pay full Council Tax.

    I see many shops, commercial buildings empty for years. Just look at Lord Street. How can the owners afford to pay the Council Tax.

    Empty business premises are exempt from business rates for 3 months. After that the owner of the building must pay the full rate.

    Several of the properties on Lord Street are owned by one estate owner who collects rents from the associated apartments, probably offsets these against the rates of the business property.
