Here are my thoughts: 1) The PCN was correctly issued. LBH / Serco had discretion to cancel it based on your informal appeal but chose not to. You were planning to appeal it to PATAS. LBH / Serco won't issue a new residents permit to you because of your outstanding PCN. 2) If you appeal this to PATAS based on what you have posted you will not win because the adjudicator does not have any discretion - he/she will determine that the PCN was correctly issued because no valid permit was on display and that LBH followed the correct enforcement procedure and time scales unless you can show otherwise. Just to reiterate, the adjudicator has no discretion. BUT 3) Check the dimensions of the bay you were parked in with a tape measure. If the bay is smaller than the statutory bay size then you have a case. Please post back if this is true. 4) I recall the wording on the LBH resident permit application says that you cannot renew your permit if you have "outstanding PCNs" (plural) If you have only one outstanding PCN (singular), then this clause cannot apply. So LBH / Serco should not delay issuing your residents permit because of one single PCN. 5) Whether other vehicles in your street are ticketed is irrelevant.
