Hello Experts,

mins and I should be back very quickly. Please could you advise
if this can be represented and the grounds? Loading pcn both

It was a resident permit parking.
Images are available at below link by entering PCN and VRM of

Reading your first post, it seems to me that you knew you should
not have parked there, but decided to chance your arm and park,
hoping a CEO didn't come along and find your car. Is that a
correct summation ? There is no mandatory observation period
before a PCN may be served where a vehicle is seen in an
apparent parking contravention.
Although this forum is here to assist PCN recipients and also
bring councils to account for their various tricks they use to
game the system, sometimes a PCN really is correctly served, and
this seems to be one of those times. Others have hinted that you
might be able to claim loading, (the food), but if you had just
parked to pick up a takeaway, then I think this argument would
fail. The other thing is that the council are almost certain to
reject any representations you submit, so to get a final and
unbiased judgment, you'd have to take them to London Tribunals.
This means the full PCN penalty would be in play; no discount if
you lose.
Of course there may be a 'technical' appeal, totally unrelated
to the actual contravention that could win at London Tribunals.
These are based on council mismanagement of the enforcement
process. Councils must obey the regulations that govern their
enforcement same as you, and if they don't, it is a procedural
impropriety and grounds for cancellation of the PCN. However,
nobody has yet suggested anything.
Of course, recommendation is not to pay yet, so you should at
least submit some representations stating why you parked there,
(the food) and claim you were loading pre-ordered goods. Was the
food such that it needed to be collected and taken somewhere
quickly, so meant you could not park some distance away ? If
this was so, put it in your reps. Post up their response here
when you get it. Provided your reps are received by them before
the discount period expires, they will re-offer the discount.

IMO they've used the wrong contravention code - should be a 12
"Parked in a residents or shared use parking place without
clearly displaying a permit or pay and display ticket issued for
that location", not a 1. I'd contest it on those grounds.

The photos are clear: parking place markings and Res Permit
Holder sign in evidence.
It's the wrong contravention, there's no waiting restriction at
the location.

Yes the CEO has malfunctioned - a simple challenge:
The contravention did not occur. I was parked in a resident's
bay not on a yellow line as your pictures confirm.
The PCN has been issued in error and I look forward to your
early confirmation of cancellation.
