Hi All!
I have just received my first ever penalty charge notice and would like to ask for any advice you could give to help appeal it. Notice served today for contravention code 01 parking on double yellow lines. Little bit of background first: I live on a terraced street in Rugby, Warwickshire. Car was parked about 80 feet from home and I have a valid permit displayed. There is a known issue on my street with a lady living in a caravan which does not have a parking permit or even a license plate! She also parked her broken down car in front of my house a couple of months ago but the council does not seem to do anything about it. So here I am coming back from work and I see no spaces available as far as my eyes can see. I pull up at the side of the street where there is an unnecessarily long double yellow line (you could fit 2-3 cars before the actual street corner) and proceed to take my shopping into the house. By the time I am finished bringing all the shopping in, I really needed to use the bathroom... so by the time I got back to my car there is this happy yellow sticker waiting for me. Also, the pictures on the penalty charge notice website (which I suppose provide the evidence) do not show much apart from the CEO's hand. Thanks! |

I have appealed this as the council never sent the NtO
You don't know this, all you know is that it was not received. And it's not a procedural impropriety for you not to receive. It might be if they did not address to the V5C addressee, but if not to them, then to whom?? And if they sent the OfR to you, then the probability is that the NTO and CC were addressed similarly, authorities being creatures of habit as they are. If not, then did they pluck your address out of the air? So OP, let's just look at your end, metaphorically speaking, and tell us your addresses from day 1 and your V5C details over time before we get too carried away with the authority's perceived failings. |
