    Apparently in Dover District the rates will fall by 5% overall as an average. Within that some will gain and others will lose.

    Be careful though - there are two elements to the business rates, the rateable values (based broadly on business rental values) and the rate poundage. The rateable values may increase but that is off-set by a reduction in the poundage. Some people may have misunderstood how this works. To get the rates bill you multiply one by the other.

    By the way - these are not set locally but by Government agencies, the money is collected by council and paid to the Government who give back a small proportion to the Council.
