Parking Charge Notices
Dear Merton Borough Council,
Under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like to request the following information:
The number of parking charge notices (PCNs) issued by your authority over the last two years. Specifically, I am requesting the following information:
1 - The total number of penalty charge notices (PCNs) issued.
2 - The total revenue generated from these PCNs.
3 - A breakdown of the locations where each fine was issued.
For clarity, I would appreciate it if the breakdown could include:
The street name or specific location.
The number of PCNs issued at each location.
The revenue generated from each location.
Please provide this data separately for each year so that a year-on-year comparison can be made.
I request that this data be provided in Excel format.
If you have any questions about this request, I will be more than happy to clarify.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response.
Yours faithfully,
Owen Marshall
