📰 News we're reading

• How tax policy can stop threat actors from breaching US water systems (cyberscoop.com) — Plymouth is cited alongside several Minnesota towns as having been targeted by state-backed cyber actors probing weaknesses in local water and utility systems. The piece argues that federal tax policy should better support cybersecurity investments so smaller cities can afford software, monitoring, and staff to protect critical infrastructure from increasingly sophisticated attacks.
   

• Those potholes are becoming a real nuisance (minnpost.com) — Plymouth has joined several Minnesota cities in voting to end use of Flock automated license plate reader cameras, a move that could affect how local police monitor traffic and crime. The broader roundup also covers a St. Paul harassment dispute, a former senator's sentencing, Minneapolis school closure proposals, and other statewide stories.
