Well that's my theory out of the window, so a technical appeal
it is.
Just make a plea for discretion for now, the council will
inevitably reject but we have to go through the motions. At the
notice to owner stage, we should be able to trip them into a
procedural impropriety.
Does she have the V5C and is the address up to date?

Yes, the V5C is up to date. She says she will make a plea on the
grounds she's a bit of an idiot (not quite the word she used)
;D
Shall I post it on here before sending?

So she has typed out a representation which I have just copied
and pasted below. Looks to me that it might want a bit of a tidy
up. What do you think?
I would like to submit informal representations RE: PCN
YN07587327
When parking 25/01/24 I looked at the previous days scratch card
which was dated 24/01/24 and so as I’m a retard I started to
scratch off 24th on the new scratch card when I noticed on my
watch it said 25th.
Because of the limited number of scratch cards available I
didn’t want to waste one and therefore scratched off 25th.
None of your evidence shows the scratch card had been used 24th-
it wouldn’t as this was a mistake of mine.
I would like to add that I have tried on numerous occasions to
get an A2 parking permit. As a Shop owner in Scarborough I am
entitled to a permit however the council still, after 6 months,
haven’t issued me with a rates bill to allow me to pay for the
permit hence why I didn’t want to waste a scratch card.
Based on the information above I am appealing on your good will
to overturn this ticket.

I think you need to explain more about why your wife started to
scratch out the 24th. Just saying she is "a retard" is not
really all that persuasive. If you have a diagnosed mental
condition then this should be stated along with evidence.

Dear North Yorkshire Council,
I would like to submit informal representations RE: PCN
YN07587327
When parking on 25 January 2024 I looked at the previous days
scratch card which was dated 24/01/24 and without thinking I
started to scratch off 24th on the new scratch card when I
noticed on my watch it was now the 25th.
Because of the limited number of scratch cards available I
didn’t want to waste one and therefore scratched off 25th, I now
realise Is should not have done this.
While I appreciate it was my mistake and the scratchcard was
invalid, there has been no loss to the council. I am a shop
owner in Scarborough and I am entitled to a permit however I
have been encountering significant difficulties in getting a
permit because the council has still not issued me with a rates
bill, which I need in order to obtain a permit, this has now
been going on for six months.
While I appreciate none of this amounts to a defence in law, I
trust that you will be able to exercise :P discretion not to
enforce on this occasion.
Yours faithfully,
[/indent]
In the meantime I would suggest you start gathering evidence of
the difficulties there have been in getting the permit.
While it is an entirely separate matter to the PCN, it's obvious
the permit needs to be sorted so I would contact the local
councillor about this, contact details here:

The councillor cannot help with getting the PCN cancelled, so
don't get her involved with that.
