Appeals to the Parking Adjudicator may be made in writing, in
which case the Adjudicator will issue a written decision
along with his or her reasons for reaching that decision.
The majority of appeals are dealt with on this purely
postal basis.
If they wish, appellants may request a personal hearing
in which they have the chance to put their case to a
Parking Adjudicator in person. In almost all cases the
Adjudicator will tell the appellant their decision at
the end of the hearing and this will be followed up
by written confirmation.
An
appellant requesting a personal hearing may ask for
it to be held at any hearing venue, no matter where
the Penalty Charge Notice was issued. Thus, an individual
who received a Penalty Charge Notice on holiday in Bournemouth
could have their personal appeal heard in York if this
is the closest venue to their home address.
More venues are being added as more councils take up enforcement
powers. Personal hearing venues are generally well known in the community.
They are central and accessible to all, including the
disabled. Examples of venues are meeting rooms in libraries,
leisure centres and well-known local hotels. Only rarely
are personal hearings heard in court buildings - generally
where there is a shortage of alternative accommodation
in the area. The appellant is advised of the address
of the hearing centre when they receive notification
of the time and date on which their personal appeal
has been scheduled.
Although
appeal venues are chosen on the basis of their accessibility
and relative informality, it should be noted that just
as with any court case, appeals are held in public and
members of the public have a legal right to attend.
However, this is rare and those attending hearings are
generally limited to the appellant, the Parking Adjudicator
and perhaps a representative from the local authority.
