Amendment 2 - Addendum III Closing Date Extension - November 26, 2018 CONTACT CLOSING DATE CLOSING LOCATION Applicants are also strongly encouraged to provide additional information regarding their Proposals at the https://marketplace.city ("Marketplace") an online platform designed to showcase smart city technologies. The Cities reserve the right to consider any information posted by Applicants to Marketplace in their evaluation of Proposals, in their sole discretion. Submissions received after the closing time may be returned unopened. General Description of Requirement Cities across Canada, and around the world, are embracing new innovative approaches to improve the quality of life for their residents. Many are leading a transition towards becoming 'Smart Cities', leveraging data and connected technologies to dramatically improve economic, social and environmental outcomes. Accordingly, Infrastructure Canada has recently initiated the Smart Cities Challenge - a competition open to all municipalities, local and regional government and Indigenous communities with prize money going to the successful applicant to help implement a proposal to utilize data and connected technology. The Smart Cities Challenge is a unique opportunity to catalyze individual efforts and bring together diverse perspectives from community leaders and city builders, governments, corporations, entrepreneurs and academic innovators to achieve a real and positive impact to common issues. The City of Surrey and the City of Vancouver (collectively, the "Cities") have both led pioneering Digital & Smart City efforts that have already realized progressive results, contributing to our communities being healthier, more inclusive and livable. Building on past successes, the Cities intend to collaborate on a joint application to the Smart Cities Challenge in the $50,000,000 category (the "Joint Application"). The Call for Innovation (the "CFI") provides an opportunity for applicants (each, an "Applicant") to submit proposals.
