On January 10, 2022, SDCI transitioned to providing plan reviews via plan mark-up instead of traditional letters.

New Plan Review Process Coming Soon
SDCI will soon implement a new plan review process using the Bluebeam software application. We will stop sending out standard letter-based corrections for plan-based reviews and begin providing marked-up documents created using Bluebeam. This transition aligns us with many of our neighboring jurisdictions in regard to plan reviews.
Update: New Plan Review Process
In August, SDCI announced that it will implement a new plan review process using the Bluebeam software application.

Coming Soon: New Plan Review Process
SDCI is pleased to announce that we are planning some exciting changes to how we review plan sets. This fall, we will stop sending out standard letter-based corrections for plan reviews and begin providing marked-up documents using the Bluebeam software application. This application allows reviewers to place comments directly where they apply on the plan set, instead of describing the location of the issue in a letter. We’re confident that this change will enhance the clarity of our comments.
