Municipal/Cities

Charlotte, NC – Passport, the most trusted technology partner for innovative curb management solutions, is unveiling Passport Payments, a fully embedded payment platform purpose-built for the public sector to deliver better insights that reduce costs, improve efficiency, and make smarter payment decisions. Passport Payments gives cities full visibility and control over the entire payment lifecycle—a first in the industry. “Cities and agencies across the country are facing growing pressure to modernize legacy systems,” said Khristian Gutierrez, co-founder and CEO of Passport. “From parking and transportation programs to supporting adjacent departments, today’s governments need a secure, integrated way to manage revenue streams while improving transparency for their finance teams. Passport Payments delivers exactly that — a modern, scalable solution purpose-built for the public sector that we know will help cities evolve stale processes and deliver the payments ecosystem of the future.” With over $4 billion in curbside payments processed, Passport Payments is already supporting some of the largest U.S. cities like Denver, CO; Tampa, FL; Boston, MA; and Austin, TX. Tapping into its deep experience in high-volume, small-dollar transactions, Passport is expanding its offerings to fit a broader range of municipal payment needs. Passport Payments allows cities and agencies to accept, track, and reconcile payments across departments and services — all within a unified platform. The solution integrates with existing municipal systems to: • Accelerate access to funds • Reduce operational complexity • Enhance financial oversight • Ensure fee transparency and regulatory compliance By consolidating payment operations, governments can finally gain better control and visibility to reduce manual processes and streamline reconciliation. “In Boston, we’re focused on making government services more accessible and responsive to the people who rely on them,” said Richard Andrade, Finance Manager for the City of Boston. “Modernizing our payment infrastructure is a critical part of that mission. Passport’s platform has helped us streamline operations, improve efficiency, and better navigate the complexities our finance teams face every day.” “For over a decade, Passport has helped transform how cities manage parking and transportation — fundamentally reshaping how governments collect, reconcile, and understand payments at scale,” said Matt Harris, Partner at Bain Capital Ventures. “Passport Payments is the natural next step in that evolution, extending the company’s proven infrastructure to support every way consumers interact financially with local governments. Cities and public agencies don’t just need payment processors; they need infrastructure that understands compliance, transparency, and scale. Passport is building that critical layer, and we believe this is one of the most overlooked opportunities in fintech today.” Passport supports over 800 cities and private operators across North America, providing a best-in-class platform for parking enforcement, mobile payments, permitting, and curbside compliance. With the launch of Passport Payments, the company expands its commitment to helping cities modernize infrastructure, increase accountability, and better serve their communities.

When you think of the largest buildings in any city, your mind probably goes to soaring skyscrapers, massive stadiums, or sprawling airports. But in Wisconsin, the largest building by square footage isn’t a tower or arena—it’s actually the Parking Garage at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport. This six-story, 8,000-space post-tensioned (P/T) structure was built in three phases. The Red Section, closest to the terminal, was originally constructed in 1977. A 1989 expansion, known as the Blue Section, added 126,000 square feet per floor along the western edge, and a 2002 expansion, the Yellow Section, extended the garage along the northern side, adding another 209,000 square feet per floor. Altogether, the garage covers more than 3.5 million square feet, making it the largest building—by square footage—in the entire state of Wisconsin. For comparison: U.S Bank Center (Milwaukee): Tallest building in Wisconsin – 42 stories, 1,077,607 sq ft Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons (Milwaukee): 32 stories, 1,100,00 sq ft Clinical Services Center at University of Wisconsin-Madison: 1,897,439 sq ft Lambeau Field (Green Bay): 1,900,000 sq ft During these expansions, a total of six elevators were added: two in the 1989 section and four more in the 2002 expansion. The 2002 project also introduced an enclosed pedestrian skywalk on the third level, featuring two sets of moving walkways. This climate-controlled corridor connects the garage to the terminal, offering comfort and convenience for travelers during Wisconsin’s hot summers and frigid winters. For most of the year—aside from peak travel periods like Spring Break—this massive structure has ample capacity to accommodate nearly all travelers who choose to park there. So next time you’re planning to park at MKE, choose the garage and take a moment to look around and appreciate the sheer scale of this remarkable facility. You can proudly say, “I’m standing in the largest building in Wisconsin!” Vincent Campagna, PTMP, is a Manager, Parking & Ground Transportation for Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport.

This summer, starting July 1st, the City of Bangor, Maine, launched a parking ticket amnesty program allowing overdue fines to be paid without late fees. The program came ahead of the introduction of The Barnacle, a new windshield-mounted enforcement device designed to replace traditional boots. By the end of the month, more than $9,000 in unpaid parking tickets were resolved, demonstrating the success of a program built on fairness and equity.[1][2] A CLEAN SLATE: THE AMNESTY PROGRAM Recognizing that past violations can snowball into burdensome penalties, Bangor’s July amnesty initiative allowed residents with violations over 30 days old to pay only the original fine, waiving late fees and doubled penalties.[2] To ensure residents knew about the opportunity, the city launched a broad publicity campaign that included announcements on local TV and radio stations, social media posts, updates on the city’s website, and signage in municipal garages and downtown areas. This outreach helped spread the word quickly, encouraging compliance, giving people a fresh start, and generating strong community engagement.[3] THE NEXT CHAPTER IN PARKING COMPLIANCE With the amnesty program wrapping up, Bangor prepared to roll out Barnacle devices for ongoing enforcement. Replacing the traditional wheel boot, the Barnacle attaches to a vehicle’s windshield, making it immediately visible and unsafe to drive until resolved. Drivers receive clear instructions for fast, convenient payment and self-removal.[2][4] “The beginning of August, we are launching what’s called the Barnacle, and the Barnacle is what used to be the boot on a car. So instead of on a tire, it’s going to be on the windshield. And so we wanted people to kind of get their ducks in a row in terms of parking so that they don’t have to receive the Barnacle and we wanted to kind of have that time to be able to explain what the Barnacle is,” said Biguita Hernandez-Smith, Economic Development Officer for the City of Bangor.[3] This approach ensures compliance while minimizing disruption, damage, and wait times. PARTNERSHIPS DRIVING SUCCESS  Bangor’s Business & Economic Development Committee emphasized that this success comes from strong collaboration across departments—from finance to code enforcement. Pairing digital tools like the ParkMobile app, a fair forgiveness program, and Barnacle enforcement is helping the city deliver on its promise to make downtown parking easier, more accessible, and more efficient.[5] SETTING A MODEL FOR OTHER CITIES Bangor’s early results show how cities can pairBst compliance and trust. By recovering thousands in unpaid tickets while giving drivers a path to catch up, Bangor is setting an example for other municipalities facing similar challenges.  Watch the Full News Story [6] Sources: Bangor Daily News (September 5, 2025). “Bangor recouped $9K in unpaid parking tickets after threatening to use the ‘Barnacle’.” Bangor Daily News.

Bethlehem, PA — Following the success of its curb management pilot project with Cleverciti, the Bethlehem Parking Authority (BPA) is taking the next step. The two organizations have now extended their partnership to roll out on-street detection, increased enforcement efficiencies, and digital signage for wayfinding—strengthening Bethlehem’s efforts to manage curb usage, traffic flow, parking compliance and the overall mobility experience. Building on a Strong Foundation Earlier this year, BPA and Cleverciti launched a pilot project using Cleverciti’s AI-powered aerial sensors to monitor offstreet availability, occupancy, turnover and compliance in Bethlehem. This pilot has already delivered valuable real-time data, enabling smarter decisions on parking operations. That foundation has proven the value of data-driven curb management for Bethlehem, and now the stakes are rising: to make all of parking more responsive, compliant, and navigable. What’s New: On-Street Detection & Guided Enforcement Under the expanded scope: On-Street Detection: Additional sensors will be deployed along selected streets and to detect when vehicles are occupying curb zones. These will not only monitor if a space is in use, but also capture metadata around duration, turnover, and unauthorized uses (e.g. overstay, loading vs. passenger drop-off vs. parking). Enforcement Efficiencies: With more precise detection data, the BPA can guide enforcement practices toward the broader goal of achieving compliance rather than issuing tickets. Automated alerts will notify officers when violations occur, allowing for more efficient responses. Over time, as patterns of misuse are revealed through data, enforcement strategies can become even more efficient and proactive, reducing the need for ticketing while increasing overall compliance. Wayfinding via Digital Signage One of the most visible changes will be the addition of digital signage across key entry points and thoroughfares: Signs installed at strategic locations will display real-time curb and space availability, guiding drivers toward available areas. The signage will also help with wayfinding: showing directions to nearby parking resources, loading zones, special event zones, or accessible parking. The aim is to reduce cruising, congestion, and emissions caused by drivers circling in search of parking, while sharing impactful information with the community and improving the predictability and experience of arriving in downtown and event areas. Expected Impacts & Benefits: Benefit - What It Means for Bethlehem Improved Compliance / Reduced Violations - Guided enforcement fueled by accurate, real-time detection means fewer illegally parked vehicles, overstays, or misuse of special curb zones. Reduced Traffic Congestion - With wayfinding and visible guidance, drivers waste less time circling, freeing up curb space and easing flow. Better Use of Curb Assets - Data will reveal where curb space is under-utilized or misused, allowing BPA to reallocate, redesign, or manage zones dynamically. Enhanced User Experience - Residents, visitors, delivery drivers, and businesses benefit from clearer information, more reliable parking, and easier navigation. Environmental & Operational Efficiency - Less idling, smarter routing, and more efficient enforcement reduce emissions and minimize overtime or inefficient staff deployment. “These solutions mark another important step in our commitment to providing innovative, data-driven solutions that enhance the parking experience in Bethlehem,” said Steven Fernstrom, Executive Director of the Bethlehem Parking Authority. “Having access to accurate usage data is foundational to creating a more accessible and vibrant downtown for residents, businesses, and visitors.” “Cleverciti is proud to deepen our partnership with the Bethlehem Parking Authority,” said Sonny Samra, Chief Revenue Officer, Cleverciti. “From our initial deployment, we have seen both the challenges and the opportunities for parking in Bethlehem. Adding detection, guided enforcement, and wayfinding signage allows for an integrated approach that creates a closed loop system—where data is continuously collected, analyzed, and acted upon —providing real-time information, actionable insights, and visible guidance, so Bethlehem can deliver a better, smarter mobility experience.” What’s Next As rollout advances, BPA and Cleverciti will monitor metrics such as: Uptake in compliant parking (decrease in violations) Reduction in time spent cruising for a spot Changes in turnover and space utilization in detected zones Operational efficiencies (e.g. enforcement response time, staff allocation) Bethlehem’s journey with Cleverciti shows how modern curb management isn’t just a back-office function, but a visible, interactive experience that shapes mobility, access, and the city’s daily flow. This new phase promises to sharpen that experience for everyone.
