Rates relief

Enterprise Area Relief

Enterprise area relief provides rates relief to businesses setting up or relocating to an enterprise area site. To qualify, businesses must engage in specific sectors within fixed geographic boundaries

Relief is not awarded automatically and an application for relief must be made by the ratepayer, or a person authorised to act on behalf of the ratepayer.

You may be eligible for relief if you meet the following conditions:

  • Enterprise Area relief is available for properties in the North Lanarkshire Council enterprise area (Biocity Lanarkshire Enterprise Park Chapelhall), which are occupied for the purpose of carrying out certain activities. Relief was due to expire on 31 of March 2024. It will now be phased out over the period 2024/25 and 2025/26 with revised amounts of relief being awarded.

Discount applied
