Flood Relief

10th December, 2015

Mere Commercial wishes to extend its sympathy to all residents and businesses affected by the flooding in this community in recent days. We hope the current situation will abate quickly. The government have offered rates relief to businesses directly flooded until they are able to re-open. Businesses which have not been flooded may find their trade is also affected where, for instance, bridges have collapsed or are unusable and access will be difficult for some time. In these circumstance you may be able to appeal your rating assessment to obtain a temporary reduction in rateable value. We can offer free initial help and advice to any business in the area which have been affected.
