Colorado requires that a Monument Record be filed with the State concerning Section and aliquot corners - I post this as an FYI more than anything else, not really looking for answers to any questions

Situation here is 5 monuments within the vicinity of the Center of Section

The first record shown(1993)is accepting the pipe, same as the 1984 record - 3rd record shown.
The 2nd record shown (1990) likes the #5 rebar and appears to fit monuments within the near subdivision.

The 2 other rouge points shown on the first monument record 1/2 rebar
and not shown or noted on the 1990 record

None of the monuments are capped

This is in an area of very - very expensive properties

I've been called in to survey a line that is in dispute, it appears the line I'm surveying has been staked by two different surveyors at 2 different times using different monuments.

The corner falls in the fairway of a golf course

Who Cares Until You Tell Us About The 4 1/4 Corners

I don't see any notes that a government surveyor has set the center yet, so it looks like the ball is in your court.

It does not look to me that another survey is needed, you have collected enough data to show that a Quiet Title action is needed, that is done by the courts.

Who Cares Until You Tell Us About The 4 1/4 Corners

Paul,

Original monument for the center section corner was never marked.

The quarter corners are all in and well established in monument boxes/wells
There are no apparent discrepancies with the location of the 1/4 Corns

Monument records for each 1/4 corn exist, only dating back to 1986

Although the solution to this survey has very little to do with the 1/4 corners

I'd probably favor the one that will do the least damage to what's been laid out within the entire section. The #5 rebar best fits the nearest subdivision from 1990. That's twenty years and I'm assuming it's a line that's been honored by the land owners....

We can go on and on about original, first, whatever, but the courts are usually loathe to throw the whole neighborhood into chaos.

Good luck.
