PENALTIES FOR PARKING CONTRAVENTIONS
Within the 205 square miles of the Horsham District, Horsham District Councils’ parking attendants will issue penalty charge notices (PCNs) for most non-endorsable parking contraventions.
There are two levels of Penalty Charges depending on the severity of the contravention. The higher band is £70 (reduced to £35 if paid within 14 days) and the lower band is £50 (reduced to £25 if paid within 14 days).
If you pay late, the penalty charge inceases to £105 (higher band) and £75 (lower band). This may be more if the District Council has to pursue the debt through the use of bailiffs.
CEOs will not be allowed to accept payment and are under strict instructions that, once a PCN has been issued, it cannot be withdrawn.
CEOs do not have quotas or targets for issuing PCNs – their job is simply to get drivers to obey the parking control measures and to issue a PCN if they believe that a contravention has taken place.
