Thank you. You make a very valid point.
My next step now is to wait for the NTO through the post and
then to draft my response with the points raised above and post
it here for alterations and amendments (bear with me I'm not at
good at this!).
My appeal rejection was Friday just gone (7.7.23) and so I guess
I'll have to wait another couple of weeks.

Yes, that would make things nice and simple.

Hello again. I've received the NTO in the post this afternoon
(limited to 4 pages in one post attached here, I hope they
upload correctly, with the 5th posted below. let me know if I
need to re-upload blanking out my personal info).
I will check the first box on page 3 "The alleged contravention
did not occur".
Please be so kind as to reconfirm the presentation text for me
to write in the box on page 4. If the original text still stands
I will write:
"Dear Ashford Borough Council,
I contest liability for PCN AS09113666 on the grounds that the
alleged contravention did not occur. The terms and conditions
board which is required to convey the main requirements created
by the off-street parking places order makes no mention
whatsoever of any permit parking places, it simply indicates
that payment must be made, vehicles must park wholly within a
marked bay, and vehicles parked in a disabled persons' bay must
display a blue badge.
I have complied with all of those requirements, and it follows
that on this occasion a contravention did not occur.
Yours faithfully.
Allan Cadenhead"
Is there a need to mention that I didn't see cardboard sign
scrupulously hung up on the back of the bay with chicken wire
but did take note of the board which has no mention of permit
bays? I admitted this in my informal challenge to the PCN which
I know is not an excuse.
As a side note, that very piece of cardboard currently, today,
is now unreadable as the weather has worn the colour and text
away and is white (surprised it's still hanging on the fence).
Many thanks for your assistance.

In addition to this, what are the chances that my representation
gets refused and I have to go to tribunal?

So, the date of the Notice To Owner is 08/08/2023 and I
therefore have until 05/09/2023 in which to make my
representations to Ashford Borough Council as to why this
penalty charge should not be paid.
I will be preparing my representation in the next few weeks and
I wanted to know if what was posted above still stands word for
word, and if there are any additions I need to make?
Thanks.

Hello,
Just wanted to ask for an update if possible.
Is what was posted above still standing word for word or are
there any additions I need to make?
Many thanks,

[member=208]Circle87[/member] I can't see any reason to add
anything to the wording, send the representation off and let's
see what they say.
As for your chances of having to go to the tribunal, that's
basically a certainty. However they might not contest, roughly
30% of TPT appeals are not opposed by the enforcement authority.
I'll be happy to represent you at the tribunal in due course.

Perfect. Thank you.
I have just tried
HTML https://pcnpayappeal.ashford.gov.uk
but it
keeps returning a page of:
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using
the credentials that you supplied.
I shall call in the morning and if no success i'll hand write
the damn thing, photo copy it, post it and get receipt of
tracking and postage.
I will reconvene once I've had a response to my representations.
If I have to go to tribunal I would very much appreciate your
assistance, CP.
Best regards.
