Response:
Between the dates of 3 May and 10 June 2016, we did not acquire or order any new signs. The
majority of these signs are repeater signs for the On Street pay & display parking places and we
carry stock of these and use them as and when required. When we receive reports of signs that
are missing, defaced, damaged, etc. these are passed to our engineer or our operation’s team for
them to arrange for a replacement. The time taken to replace them depends on their workload.
The new sign on Quay Street, approximately 12 meters east of the junction with Watergate, was
erected around the 15 June 2016.

Dear Freedom Info,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts FOIA reviews.
My original request was for all emails and communications within the council that led to the erection
of the pay and display sign in question. I am fully aware that the sign was erected on the 2nd of
June contrary to the FOI response suggesting the erection took place around the 15th. Also the
response has provide no email nor internal documents of any kind as was requested and it was
made explicit in the request that the 'request that initially commenced the process' be included
which the council has failed to provide. Additionally no decision making process has been outlined in
your response.
Please process the request properly in line with the law
Yours sincerely,
Mr Aiken
-----Original Message-----
Dear Mr Aiken
I refer to your recent enquiry relating to the above which has been dealt
with under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
Please find below the Council’s response:
Between 3.5.16 and 10.6.16 a pay and display sign was erected on Quay
Street, Huddersfield approximately 12 meters east of its junction with
Watergate. Please provide the decision making process that resulted in the
erection of this sign. Please include all emails in relation to this sign
and specifically the request that initially commenced the process. I have
previously made 2 requests on this general subject area of the council, if
the council feels the need to reject on the basis of these three requests
please combine the requests in a single whole and deal with them as such.
If the costs would exceed the appropriate limit please deal only with this
specific request alone.
Between the dates of 3 May and 10 June 2016, we did not acquire or order
any new signs. The majority of these signs are repeater signs for the On
Street pay & display parking places and we carry stock of these and use
them as and when required. When we receive reports of signs that are
missing, defaced, damaged, etc. these are passed to our engineer or our
operation’s team for them to arrange for a replacement. The time taken to
replace them depends on their workload. The new sign on Quay Street,
approximately 12 meters east of the junction with Watergate, was erected
around the 15 June 2016.
If you are not content with the handling of your request, you have the
right to ask for an internal review. Requests for internal reviews should
be submitted within 2 months of the date of receipt of the response to
your original request and should be addressed to the Monitoring Officer,

On or around 2 June 2016 a 'pay at meter' sign was erected on Quay Street, Huddersfield to the north side
approximately 12 meters from it's junction with Watergate. As judged from the google street view imagery
it would appear that there has not been a sign at this location since at least September 2014. Please
provide the number of penalty charge notices (pcns) issued to vehicles parked at the bay served by that
particular sign and a breakdown of the number of those notices issued by each civil enforcement officer.
Please also provide the number of appeals that were lodged at each stage of the enforcement process in
relation to those pcns. Please also provide the number of successful appeals at each stage of the
enforcement process. Please also col ate the monetary value of the pcns identified as both those where no
challenge was made and also those whose challenges were rejected by the council at either informal or
formal stages.
