Dear Ms Davis
Freedom of Information Act 2000 - Request for Information
I am writing in respect of your enquiry dated 7 May 2009 for information held by the Council. Your enquiry is being dealt with under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
You requested information as follows:
Addresses and rateable values of empty Commercial properties that are within Dartford Council area; and
The names of the owners of those properties
The following information is provided free of charge in response to your enquiry.
The attached spread sheet indicates all empty Commercial properties within the Dartford Borough Council area as at 12 May 2009 together with their rateable values.
The ratepayer's name has only been shown where the ratepayer is a limited company or PLC. All other details have been excluded as being personal information and therefore subject to the Data Protection Act.
The ratepayer is the legal entity entitled to possession but this is not necessarily the owner of the property.
You should be aware that empty property status changes on a daily basis. Therefore this information can only be regarded as portraying the situation as at the date of extract i.e. as at 12 May 2009.
If you are unhappy with the way in which your enquiry has been dealt with, you may ask for an internal review by initiating the Council's Corporate Complaints Procedure, details of which may be obtained by logging onto the Council's website http://www.dartford.gov.uk/council/ or telephoning or emailing me. Should you remain dissatisfied with the decision on internal review, you may appeal to the Information Commissioner, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow SK9 5AF.
I would be grateful if you would address any future correspondence you may have in relation to this matter, to me, quoting the reference number FOI. 534. Please familiarise yourself with the informative on re-use of information.
