A
suspended bay without formal authorisation (BS05191) The
appellant was issued with a PCN for being parked in a suspended
bay/space or part of a bay/space and appealed on the ground
that the suspension was not apparent. The Adjudicator ruled
that a bay may only be suspended by statutory provision, including
an Act, order, regulation, bylaw or notice. The council indicated
that the bay had been suspended on the request of, and for
the convenience of, another resident. However, in the absence
of any relevant authorisation produced by the council, no
contravention was established. The appeal was allowed.
