Kirklees Council Penalty Charge Notice - Code 81 Parked In a
Restricted Area.

Colne Valley Leisure Center Car Park (Kirklees Council)11th Feb
10.38am, A PCN notice was issued for parking in a restricted
area in a car park. The area is supposed to be a yellow hatched
area, the area is not clearly marked and the lines are faded and
covered by leaves. The area only has a bin placed on the
adjacent land, therefore no obstruction took place.
As the area isn't clearly painted and there are leaves blowing
on and across the area, please advise is there a way to appeal??

You were clearly in the cross-hatched area.
The question is whether the contravention is enforceable under
their traffic order. The terms board doesn't cite the order and
doesn't include the contravention but says 'including'. The
contravention of not being in a parking place is often given.
I'll see if I can find the parent order.

DoT guidance states that markings don't have to be pristine to
be enforceable. They'd have to be a lot further gone before you
could argue you can't see them.
Leaves would be mitigation if the leaf cover was so thick you
can't see the hatchings. The fact there are leaves on the edges
and bins there doesn't mean they can't enforce the hatchings. If
the hatchings are enforceable they are enforceable if you are
substantially on them, and they are clear enough for most of the
area beneath and around your car.
RingGo has horrible capitalisation on the T&Cs, but I don't
think that affects anything.
