This is my first time posting here. Currently, the residential area I inhabit is undergoing extensive renovation, encompassing the roof replacement of six buildings, involving the installation of scaffolding.
Naturally, we acknowledge the significance of these improvements to the buildings, and all residents were duly informed of the ongoing construction.
However, a predicament has arisen due to the removal of approximately six out of the 22 parking spaces designated for the three buildings that comprise both ground and first floors. This has posed considerable challenges, given the substantial number of vehicles relying on these parking spots.
I received my initial Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) this morning, with reference number YA08032315. The issue at hand pertains to a truck blocking all available parking spaces, which were already occupied. Given the circumstances, I had no alternative but to park in the nearest available spot, a course of action that several others have also been compelled to undertake. Subsequently, I received a parking ticket after a mere 30 minutes. I contested the ticket once, but it appears the council remains unresponsive and attributes the issue to the ongoing construction activities.
Additionally, I contacted the person in charge at Foster Construction Company, but regrettably, they too have displayed indifference towards the concerns expressed. Many residents are now directing their complaints towards both the construction company and its CEO, who is responsible for issuing such tickets.
Current situation on that day:

Parked cars have consistently occupied these spaces for weeks due to the construction work, and no tickets have been issued during this time. Curiously, the report claims that I was parked elsewhere on Staffordshire Gardens, which is on the opposite side of the road.
