Smart Cities & Innovation

The Smart Cities & Innovation Committee (SCIC) shares, manages and evaluates smart city and innovation policies and projects, potential partnerships and funding opportunities.

The SCIC Committee transitioned to a quarterly schedule beginning September 2020, meeting at 12 noon on the second Thursday of the month, typically following the Operations & Oversight (O&O) Committee meeting. The location has been adjusted until further notice to virtual sessions (webinars) in lieu of in-person events. Proper notice will be given when dates or location is modified.

Any questions or comments can be directed to the SCIC HRT Representative or Administrative Liaison.

Mission Statement
