Oshkosh plans license‑plate recognition parking enforcement and 2FA rollout for public safety systems
Summary
IT and administrative staff told council the city will modernize parking enforcement with a new vendor and license‑plate recognition in two enforcement vehicles, and that an enterprise rollout of two‑factor authentication (Duo Mobile) for police and fire is planned in 2025 to meet county/state security requirements.
City IT and administrative staff briefed the council on a multi‑department modernization program that includes a new parking enforcement and virtual permitting vendor and a security mandate for two‑factor authentication.
Tony Noon outlined work to consolidate credit‑card processors and to replace a legacy parking system with a single provider that supports virtual permits and enforcement. He said the new program will require hardware and includes two parking enforcement vehicles equipped with license‑plate recognition cameras so officers can drive a route and identify permitted and non‑permitted vehicles more efficiently.
On cybersecurity and IT operations, staff explained an increase tied to lifecycle hardware replacement and to a roll‑out of Duo Mobile for two‑factor authentication for police and fire systems. Tony said the county indicated a 2‑factor mandate for public safety and staff added the first‑year costs for that rollout into the 2025 budget.
Council members emphasized cross‑department collaboration on the project; staff said a resolution for purchasing the parking professional service will be brought forward once vendor and hardware terms are final.
