This month on the Our Parking Industry Podcast, hosts Krista Olien, Leigh Thomas, and Clyde Wilson explore the innovations driving parking forward—from AI and EV charging to cybersecurity and community. Hear insights from SWTCH’s David Weber, Scheidt & Bachmann’s Mike Lauder, and the TPN team’s reflections from NPA 2025 in Indianapolis.

As parking shifts from cash to digital transactions, audits remain essential. TPN’s financial and operational reviews safeguard digital revenue streams, uncover losses in e-commerce feeds, and hold vendors accountable. Cash may be gone, but revenue loss is alive and well—hidden in third-party rate structures and disconnected systems. The question isn’t whether audits are relevant; it’s whether you can afford to skip them.

Bangor, Maine is making headlines with bold parking initiatives. From launching ParkMobile and a month-long parking amnesty to adopting the Barnacle windshield enforcement system, the city is prioritizing compliance and revenue to maintain its facilities. TPN applauds Bangor’s three-pronged approach—clear regulations, communication, and consistent enforcement—to improve parking management and support local businesses.
