The 3-hour limit AND no return within 1 hour. Could the

Are you ok to review the appeal draft please?
Dear Manchester City Council,
I refer to the Notice to Owner dated 11/12/2024 in respect of a
PCN allegedly served on my vehicle at 13:12 hours on 05/11/2024,
alleging a contravention of 'Parked in a restricted street
during prescribed hours'.
Firstly, I would like to inform you that the Notice to Owner is
the first I have heard of the alleged contravention because I
did not receive a PCN. There was no documentation attached to my
vehicle at any time [as can also be seen in the photos taken by
the authority], and I also did not receive a PCN via post.
Secondly, I would like to appeal the Notice to Owner as the
contravention did not occur. The reason for this is, at the time
of the alleged contravention:
1] I was displaying my Blue Badge [picture attached] and Clock
in the prescribed position as required, from 11:30 to 13:30 on
the day of the alleged contravention. As per my daily routine, I
did not park again at that place until the morning of the
following day.
2] As I did not find a PCN on my car when I returned, I had no
reason to photograph the position of my Blue Badge, and
therefore have no objective evidence on this point.
3] The photographs provided by the authority, do not have any
evidence that my Blue Badge was not displayed, or that a PCN was
served.
4] I have held a Blue Badge for many years and I am therefore
well acquainted with the rules surrounding the use and display
of it. I also park at this location daily, and coincidentally
the Google Street View link provided at the end of this message
shows my car parked at the location of the alleged
contravention. Even in the Google Street View images of my car,
my Blue Badge and Clock are clearly visible which shows that I
do display my Badge and Clock.
In light of all of the above raised points, I request you to
cancel the PCN and subsequent Notice to Owner.
Kind Regards

Put the PCN Number after "PCN" in the first sentence. Otherwise
it looks OK.

It's rather long, I would cut it down. It's not an appeal - it's
representations at this stage and do it online.
-------------------------
I am making representations against the PCN as the contravention
did not occur owing to the exemption of displaying a Blue Badge.
I displayed my Blue Badge [picture attached] and clock in the
prescribed position as required, from 11:30 to 13:30 when I
returned to the car. As per my daily routine, I did not park
before or after before these times on the day at this location.
Please note the Notice to Owner is the first time I have heard
of this alleged contravention because I did not find a PCN on
the car when I returned to it.
Referring to your pictures, there are none of the dashboard
showing the Blue Badge and clock, and none of a PCN served on my
car.
As it appears this PCN was issued in error, I look forward to
its early cancellation.
Kind Regards

Attach unredacted pictures/PDF scans of both sides of the Blue
Badge to any representations and/or appeal to the Adjudicator.
Not just the front.

This is what was sent to the council:
"Firstly, the Notice to Owner is the first I have heard of the
alleged contravention because there was no PCN attached to my
vehicle.
Secondly, I am making representations against the PCN as the
contravention did not occur owing to the exemption of displaying
a Blue Badge. I have uploaded a picture of the Blue Badge.
On the day of the alleged contravention, I displayed my Blue
Badge and Clock in the prescribed position as required, from
11:30 to 13:30. As per my daily routine, I did not park before
or after these times on the day at this location.
As I did not find a PCN on my car when I returned, I had no
reason to photograph the position of my Blue Badge, and
therefore have no photos of this.
Referring to your photos, there are none of the dashboard
showing the presence or absence of my Blue Badge and Clock, just
as there are none of a PCN attached to my vehicle.
In light of my Blue Badge exemption and my displaying of it, it
appears the PCN has been served in error.
I therefore kindly request you to cancel the PCN."

She has received an email response to the representation.
They've cancelled the PCN but I'm not happy with their response.
It states that she was given a PCN for parking on a double
yellow. But where she parked/parks is a single yellow.
Just wondering if she should reply and get clarification because
that's where she parks every day. So she needs to know for sure
if she can or cannot park there with the blue badge.

The 3 hour blue badge exemption applies to double and single
yellow lines provided there are no loading restrictions.
They obviously haven't looked at this properly and maybe just
thought the PCN hadn't been served.
You can write to them pointing out their error but I wouldn't
worry unless it happens again - it would likely be a CEO who
needs training.
