Just like the builder who is paid by the hour. The longer he can stay
on the job, the more he will earn.

Do you have any evidence of councils paying bonuses? Cambridge has just
started with its own parking attendants and doesn't pay any such thing.

The old westminster/NCP incentive scheme included giving a free
holiday to the best employee. Was well publicised on local
news/radio/papers in london.

I think the councils problems are in getting their staff to actually
work. On the one hand, if they have incentives they will have people
over issuing tickets. On the other hand they need to get the traffic
wardens out of Glouster Road Burger King and a well known student bar
where they seem to congregate/sleep for hours on end
