Council continues to put tickets in private land

I am one of the residents who park in front of the apartment on
a private land. This is identified by the council as a private
land, supported by the landlord/mgmt agency (same landlord as
the apartment) and official public unadapted highway maps.
For the last few years, when we get PCNs, we submit
representations with the above documentation and then the
council cancels them. This stops for few months till a new
parking officer comes in, and issues tickets again. This starts
the process all over. All the residents received 2 tickets now
(3 cars, 2 each, 6 in total, and going up), and probably will
receive more in the next few days.
The road markings have just been painted as DYL (from SYL/boards
have been taken down) so code 01 on PCN seems to be wrong. I
have seen the TRO so DYL should be correct.
Please let me know if you want to see documentation, and I can
post up the links.
Is there any advise on how to remediate this?

Councils can enforce private land if the land has the appearance
and use as public land. Can you link us to a google street view
of the land/location?

Though its from 2022, the black car at the end is mine. All the
3 cars/RKs (in the street view) got the tickets except the
orange car.
I can attach some new pics tomorrow morning.

To me it gives the appearance of a public road and the yellow
lines restrictions are valid to the boundary wall. There was the
case of the Soho tenant who parked his moped on a similar bit of
private land that went to the High Court. He lost.
