The car has a unique identifier already. Several of them infact.
I don't see how chalking could have ever been an option on the table. Why do you need to touch someone's car to identify it? A notepad and a pen would suffice, no?
EXAMPLE ST. - 8am
-Green honda AAB-234
-Red Toyota 22F-554
-Blue Land Rover 9JG-532
EXAMPLE ST. - 9am
-Green Honda AAB-234 <- Getting a ticket
-Yellow Nissan BB5-K25 <- New, no ticket
-Blue Land Rover 9JG-532 <- Getting a ticket
I mean it really is that easy and it takes about the same amount of time, perhaps a little more diligence. It's sad that we need to govern for the lowest common denominator. If the civil servants weren't so lazy/disinterested/uneducated this wouldn't have cost the city as much money as it did to resolve.

Then see how many tires you can mark with chalk on a stick in the same amount of time. As a taxpayer, I'd rather not pay for the difference in staff.
