Section 106 agreement

Posts: 2 Newbie

I bought a shared ownership flat in Clapham in 2008 and have been parking using resident parking permits in the appropriate lambeth parking zone for which my permit was issued and then renewed annually and sometimes 6 monthly for almost 12 years and this with my current and previous car.
When I wanted to renew my permit last month. It was approved and a few days later I received an email from lambeth advising me that my parking permit renewal had been rejected as my building was part of a section 106 agreement and therefore not eligible for resident parking permits. Attached was a 3 months temporary permit so that I could find alternative arrangements for my car.
I was not sure if this was real as I found the email in my junk mail and each time I looked at my account with lambeth parking.my permit was issued and valid until October.
Then last week I received an email telling me that my permit was now cancelled and my payment refunded.and as a matter of fact. It was in my account the next day.
There is no appeals option or email address to reply and just a link to Lambeth parking and the section 106 explanation etc and another to the ombudsman.
Finding parking in Clapham is next to impossible and the 4 spaces within the building courtyard are disabled spaces and I am now so stuck. I am cabin crew on private jets and need my car to work from all private, commercial and military airports around London and can't belive that they can just do this after issuing me permits for 12 years and now just refusing to.
Does anybody know what my options are to appeal or how to approach this?

As we major on private parking tickets here, PePiPoo, which majors on council tickets might be a better placed forum. Register there but please note that a hotmail address won't work - try using a throwaway gmail account instead if you do have trouble registering) and post a new thread; here's your link:But this is an issue you might enlist the help of your local councillor, or even employ the services of a law firm.
Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

I had a similar section 106 issue nearby. I would start by taking a look at the planning application for the building - particularly the council’s conditions for approval. If you have no right to park it should have absolutely been brought to your attention when you bought the flat. In the best case scenario you may have a right to park in a space currently allocated as disabled. Wandsworth Council were very helpful in my case. Their intent of the condition was to ensure the developer provided parking to stop congestion on the street - and they took the matter very seriously. It’s odd it’s taken this long but not many people check the agreement I’ve found. Good luck.1
