EDITORIALIntelligence at the Core of Urban MobilityThe parking industry has quietly become one of the more sophisticated corners of urban technology and most people haven't noticed.What used to be meters, barriers and patrol officers is now a real-time intelligence operation. Cloud platforms and IoT sensors are turning static spaces into dynamic assets that respond to demand as it happens. U.S. cities are deploying pricing systems that adjust by the minute based on occupancy, reducing the circling traffic that accounts for a surprising share of urban congestion while providing operators with live visibility into utilization and revenue.But the bigger shift is conceptual. Parking facilities are no longer just parking facilities; they're mobility hubs. EV charging stations, bike-share docks and last-mile logistics are converging under unified management systems that coordinate flow across transportation modes. This isn't about optimizing car storage. It's about rethinking how cities move people and goods.The market is responding accordingly. Smart parking is projected to grow at a rate of 18.29 percent annually through 2029, with parking management expanding at a rate of 20.4 percent through 2030. That's not incremental growth. That's recognition of infrastructure becoming intelligence and cities learning to think differently about their curbs.This edition highlights public sector leaders reshaping digital governance. Inez J. Rodenburg, GISP, CGCIO, MBA, chief information officer (CIO), City of Danville, Virginia, emphasizes the importance of bridging generational divides in e-governance to ensure inclusive digital access. Stephen Pereira, chief information officer, Calvert County Government focuses on managing rising software costs while balancing security, efficiency and fiscal responsibility. Together, they demonstrate how modern governance thrives on the combination of technology and empathy.We also spotlight Federal Parking, a Mid-Atlantic leader blending technology with human oversight in parking management. Led by Barrett Goodman, the company operates 35 garages with systems that combine automation, on-site support and real-time coordination. From urban operations to its luxury Collector's Car Corral, Federal Parking sets new standards for efficiency and service.We hope these perspectives help technology leaders, city planners and mobility innovators navigate the U.S. transformation in urban infrastructure and digital governance.Let us know your thoughts!OCTOBER 2025, volume 04 - Issue 02 (ISSN 2837-4606)Published by ValleyMedia, Inc.
