Waiting for Retail Relief

I suppose it is lucky that South Cambridgeshire have actually sorted themselves out enough to have a process in place. At least two councils have not yet done anything, with Croydon council telling me that the full Council needs to agree to it being given and that a form should be available by October. Bearing in mind that the form will have to be completed and submitted to the council who will then have to decide whether the property qualifies, anyone unlucky enough to have a retail property in Croydon will probably not see the relief until nearly a year after it was announced.
