Once your application has been selected for review, you are able to access the project in ePlans at any time.  Real time reports are provided, showing plan review status and any markups or correction requests left by reviewers.

Accessing ePlans is as easy as selecting the button provided on our website. 

• After logging in, the screen will show two buttons: TASK and APPLICATIONS. 

  • Tasks notifies you of any required comment responses needed, files or documents requested and/or markups needing attention. 

  • Applications allows you to view all applications into the City of Joliet and track the review/access particular information.

1. Find the project you’re checking status for and click the ‘Reports’ icon to the left.

2. Once have opened the Reports tab, scroll down to the Plan Review – Department Review Status COV report and click the icon to the left.

3. The report will show what is happening with your submittal in real time. If you see a department's name but no reviewer name or status, this means that it’s still pending and awaiting to be accepted by that department/group. If everything is listed with no status, this means the reviewer is currently working on the project.  If you see all fields complete, the reviewer has completed their review.

• Review Not Applicable – The department does not need to review the submittal

• Complete – The reviewing department is approving the submittal as is with no required changes.

• Revise & Resubmit – Changes are required before the submittal can be approved.
