Overview
This bill changes how land surveyors handle records of surveys. Instead of the county surveyor returning a survey record with suggested changes, the surveyor must now return it to the licensed land surveyor or registered civil engineer who submitted it, along with a list of necessary revisions. The bill also expands requirements for corner records, including civil engineers, and clarifies the process for examining and filing these records, requiring a higher level of service from county surveyors. Finally, it eliminates state reimbursement for this new local program.
