They must rearrange it to fit in with you - there should be no
problem as they sit 6 days a week. Call them and say from when
would suit you.

Good news update !
Just wanted to update you all that i just had my hearing and the
adjudicator allowed the appeal within less than 2 minutes.
So wanted to relay thanks, particularly to HC Andersen for a
well crafted response, because although i was all geared up to
explain my story, she didnt actually need much more from me at
all.

Good - but this should not have been contested by Harrow.

Great, thank you so much for your help.
[member=2249]stamfordman[/member], judging by your comment that
harrow should not have contested, do you think there are grounds
for a cost order? i wasn't going to bother unless anyone here
thinks its worth it - they did fail to even consider the
exemption at every stage which the adjudicator alluded to but
didnt comment on any procedural impropriety.

It doesn't cost anything to ask for costs but it's a high bar
and probably won't succeed. I think it's worth a go given the
adjudication.
---------
Case reference
The Appellant is appealing a Penalty Charge Notice issued in
respect of parking in a permit holder only space at the
location.
The Appellant has attended the hearing and given evidence.
The Council relies upon photographic capture of the vehicle, a
copy of the PCN, a copy of the relevant legislation, and
correspondence.
The Appellant contends that she should benefit from an exemption
contained within the relevant Order. She has contended from the
outset that, at the relevant time, she was assisting her father,
who holds a valid Blue Badge. She contends that she was
escorting her elderly father to his home and unload his shopping
into his home. This took a number of trips back and forth, and
he could not do this due to his serious health difficulties. As
soon as he was safely inside his house, she returned to the
vehicle.
I have carefully considered all the evidence in this matter.
The footage relied upon by the Council shows the vehicle parked
and unattended at the location.
Article 11 of the Order which creates the restriction sets out
an exemption if a vehicle is waiting, "for so long as may be
necessary to enable that person to board or alight from the
vehicle or load thereon or unload therefrom their personal
luggage.".
I am satisfied having heard the Appellant' oral evidence that
this exemption has been established.
I therefore allow this appeal.
