Have your say on proposed changes to Council Tax Support |

Nottingham City Council is consulting on future options for its Council Tax Support scheme which helps households on low incomes with their Council Tax bill. 

We may consider your challenge if you were loading or unloading heavy goods from a vehicle and you were away from the vehicle for a period of time because:

  • You had parked as close as you could to the delivery location
  • The items you were delivering were either delicate, difficult to manoeuvre or extremely heavy.

You will need to confirm:

  • The approximate weight of the items
  • Why there was no activity seen around the vehicle
  • How long it took you to complete the task
  • Why the task took as long as it did
  • What the items were.

Please be aware that you are not guaranteed to have your Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) cancelled as each case is reviewed individually.

Appeal your PCN

Alternatively, if you pay your PCN within 14 days of the date of your ticket, you pay the lower amount shown on your ticket. If you pay after 14 days, you pay double that amount. A PCN (not a Notice to Owner) that has been served through the post has a discount period of 21 days.
