I guess there are easier surveys but I do not know what they are called.
Anyway, I think I just get so involved with surveying that I can take a Timex Watch and turn it into a Swiss Chronograph..maybe it's because I just like making records..
The county will probably have a fit over this one. I have changed the 'official' wording on the CR page. Usually it is Page 2 of 2 for the map page. I am calling that 'Page 2 of 4 pages of 2 sheets' for one map page and 'Page 4 of 4 pages of 2 sheets' for the other map page.. I'll BRB, I have to go hang my head in shame..
I did come across an oddity in doing this job. I had two sets of field notes. One dated 1929 and another dated 1994. The 1994 set calls out an alley intersection as being 'prorated' for distance (the alley at Westlawn) and also says they set some lead/tack tangent ties in a curb. Well those ties in that curb are a heck of a lot older than 17 years, and the c/l intersection monument the city set falls exactly (well, 0.002' off) on the tangent line of two of the ties. The distances are also exact, from the set c/l monument, to the two cross ties as it shows in the 1929 notes. Same crew did the same thing at the SW end of the alley. So something is not right with the notes on the 1994 work. Also, if the alley was 'prorated' in is not it the norm to show how one established both fixed ends of the line the prorated position falls on? This is not shown at all.

I was going to just drop a JPG in Photobucket but decided not to.
So, if anyone is looking for someone who can take a one hour survey and turn it into 6 hours, I'm the guy to call
Wow busy drawing! I'll show my ignorance here though, why are the ROW distances not called out?

Thanks! Good catch..I wonder what else I missed..Thank you

well then your welcome!
Lot 28 of what? What's the subdivision name?
I think Corner Records should be as many pages as necessary as long as they don't trigger a Record of Survey requirement. There might be a technicality in the State Law that doesn't allow that, but if I were you, I'd stick to my guns and demand that the CR be recorded and let the CS put a note on it if they have a problem.
Now, whether there are material discrepancies with previously recorded maps and evidence that might result in alternate positions of points or line, that's something to consider in our great state of CA. whether a Corner Record is going to cut it. Since it doesn't seem to be common practice to show record values for the lines determined by your surveys down South, it's hard to tell if you are agreeing or disagreeing with previously recorded maps or documents in a material way.

The record is 2 sheets, 4 pages. All you see is one page.

No problem with multiple pages. I have done quite a few that were multiples. One was six pages, went through with nary a problem.

Interesting point to discuss.
What I have shown are monuments that are on different parcel lines produced. Now, how can there possibly be any material discrepancy between existing property line monuments?
I don't see any...do you?
For every survey done there is always going to be an alternate position. It's all opinion and with every opinion there will be others that disagree with minor variations and have their opinion.

Why clutter up a map when it's not necessary? Corner Records and RS are used mostly by surveyors in their research. They will have copies of the record documents that are listed on the CR. Let them compare apples to oranges.

Like I told Mr Anderson, you are also seeing just one of four pages. This CR was prepared mainly to show what monuments exist in the block on the sideline of Greene Street and their relationship one to another. I have not determined any other boundary but the line that divides Lot 28 from Lot 27.

That tier of lots was laid out like this..
(3) 50 foot lots from Mascagni, then (4) 80 foot lots, with Lot 28 given the odd parts.
