PCN - Confused by parking sign...
Michael Browne replied to mrbrooks's topic in Local Authority Parking and Traffic Offences
Nothing to do with overstaying, that would have been Code30:Parking for longer than permitted Two [possible scenarios: 1. The parking place is divided into 2 parts, one permit holders/P&D and one permitholderrs/2hr limit and you mistakenly parked in the wrong section 2. CEO mistakenly thought the restrictions opposite applied to your side of the road. But this is all guesswork until we know the exact location. Have you looked at the council pics on their website. -

The sign means permit holders can park there for as long as they want, whilst non-permit holders are limited to 2 hours. What is the contravention on the pcn and what's the exact location. -
The truck was legitimately allowed to park there to unload at 14.59 Since you work there and have parked there many times, ie you are no stranger to the area, you can hardly claim that you were unaware of the waiting and loading restrictions. You could argue that because of the 'gap' caused by the resurfacing at the pedestrian croosing, that there are two separate lengths of single yellow line and each section requires it's own separate timeplate, which your section didn't have. Good luck with that!! I'd take the discount and find somewhere else to park in future

What manxman is saying is that the claims management company might lease the vehicle and that the RK is a finance company and they would have received the original pcn. They would have transferred liability to the claims management company, who in turn have transferred liability to you. That would explain the extended timescale and the council would legitimatey be able to serve beyond the 28 day deadline.

It would make life a lot simpler if you just tell us the exact location where you parked. Yes you have to wait for the NtO to make formal representations. If that is made within 14 days of receipt of the NtO and the council still reject, although not required to do so, many councils will re-offer the discount (in the hope that the motorist will throw in the towel and pay up) If your council doesn't and demands the full penalty, then it's a no brainer to appeal to the adjudicator since it won't cost you anymore than the full penalty
