Dear Cheshire West and Chester Council,

I am looking for a list of long term empty property lists within
the councils area, specifically properties which could be / have been used commercially i.e warehouse, office spaces, shops, bars, pubs etc. Would you be able to supply me with these under the Freedom of Information Act? A spreadsheet will suffice, I
require no personal information simply the property address.

Yours faithfully,

Benito
