02/13/2024: SUBMITTAL:
All plans should be saved as optimized/flattened PDFs to reduce file size and
remove layers.
Per the Electronic Submittal Requirements AutoCAD SHX attributes need to be
removed from the PDF’s.
AutoCAD turns drawing text into comments that appear in the PDF plan set,
and these must be removed prior to submittal as they can cause issues with the PDF file.
The default setting is "1" ("on") in AutoCAD. To change the setting and remove
this feature, type "EPDFSHX" (version 2016.1) or “PDFSHX (version 2017 and
newer) in the command line and enter "0".

02/13/2024: FOR RECORDING - PLAT:
Could you please update the City signature blocks on the plat? Instead of using
"this _______ day of ______A.D., 20____," could you opt for "on this day,
_____________" for the date? This alternative format facilitates smoother date
input with digital signatures. (revised)
Additionally, kindly ensure there is sufficient space between the signature line
and the title line to accommodate the digital signature. (added spaces)
If you need an example please let me know.
The City Clerk does not sign the plat, you can remove their dedicated signature line.
Thank you.
Response: Revised as requested.
