Plan Submittal:
We will need 2 - 3 copies of drawings for plan check (refer to
table below). One will be red lined with plan check
corrections and returned to the designer, the other(s) saved as a record of
you submittal. Upon completion of the plan corrections, re-submittal of the
original red line copy is required.
Once the final corrections have
been made and the plan is ready for signature, Mylar "originals" are required.
These will become permanent records with the city. If copies are needed, the
plan may be "check-out" for duplication but must be returned.

Plan Check Fees:
Plan check fees must be paid for
prior to final approval. Typically, plan check fees are calculated during the
first plan check. The plan check fee will be noted on the return transmittal
form. Refer to our Fee Schedule for all Engineering fees.
Drawing Format:
Plan Size:
A standard "D" size plan sheet (24"x36") is
preferred, but if your project is large enough, an "E" size sheet (30"x42")
may be used. Larger plan sheet sizes are discouraged. Drawing scale should be
used to convey the information clearly. A large scale make the plan easy to
read, but can produce an excessive number of sheets. A small scale will allow
the "big picture", but may reduce the visibility of important information. Typically,
Street Improvement Plans are drawn at 1"=40'; Grading Plans at 1"=10' or 1"=20'.
Plan Media:
For all plan check submittals, only paper
copies of the original drawing is required. At the time of plan approval, the
plan must be submitted on reproducible Mylar film. Vellum originals may be acceptable
for single family residential grading plans only.
Typical Plan Elements:
Plans should be uncluttered and easy to read. Plans may be
returned unchecked if the plan is difficult to interrupt the information. Improvement
plans shall contain the following applicable items:
Title Block:
We prefer that the design professional
uses their own title block for projects in Cathedral City. This helps with identifying
who the plan preparer is. Provide a location on the plans for final approval
signature from the city. Depending on the type of plan, different signature
blocks should be used.
For projects that require signature from our City Engineer,
use the following information (Street Improvements; Sewer; Water; Storm Drain;
Traffic Signal and Striping):
