Overview

Using an on-street parking place to sell or display goods for sale when this is prohibited.

From the warden's perspective

Warden's note

Same principle as off-street code 74. Evidence requirement is high — the CEO must witness actual selling activity or clear display of goods for sale. Prohibition must be signed.

Common mistakes

Grounds councils sometimes get wrong — worth checking against your PCN and evidence pack.

  • No prohibition sign present
  • Activity was not commercial selling
  • CEO did not witness actual transaction or display

Your rights

Challenge if the prohibition wasn't signed or if the CEO cannot evidence they witnessed selling activity.
