The final section of this Guidance contains information on how appeals are addressed by the Notts Parking Partnership and the Penalty Charge Notice issuing authorities. This is not prescriptive guidance as it is recognised that each case must be assessed on its own merits. All grounds for cancellation submitted will be considered fairly and objectively. The advice that follows should therefore be regarded as guidance only on the likely grounds for appeal and the type of evidence that would best support each case.
10.1 The Authority that issued the Penalty Charge Notice has the power of discretion to cancel the Penalty Charge Notice at any point in the process even if it established that a contravention did occur. Each District and Borough Council has therefore, a nominated Parking Manager within the authority able to cancel Penalty Charge Notices. Such discretion will however take into consideration this guidance which has been approved by the Members of each participating authority.
10.2 The Penalty Charge Notice as issued contains advice on how the motorist can appeal if they wish to do so. This must always be in writing to the Central Processing Unit, P.O. Box 9452, Nottingham, NG15 5BR. In the first instance, this will be as an informal representation.
