You guys read the Mr. Boffo comics? I love his "How to tell when you are dealing with someone who..." followed by the appropriate drawing showing the ludicrous situation.

I just received comments on one of my ALTA surveys, and the comments show I'm dealing with an attorney going down a checklist. She (I know it is a she) wants me to include optional Table A item 14 (distance to the nearest intersecting street) on a site which is adjacent to three (3) public streets and 10 (party walls) on a single metal building in the middle of the site. Also, I didn't say if the utility easement on the site and shown on the survey drawing affects the site.

I'm having a glass of wine with some Triscuits then I'm going to take a nap. How you like that!?ÿ

Adjacent to three streets.?ÿ Can't be much more accessible than that.

So when you show a distance for item 14 what do you measure??ÿ Middle of building or site to the nearest ROW??ÿ Or curb??ÿ Or crown on street??ÿ Or maybe something else?

That is a bizarre request.

I've had a similar property where the planning board sent it back to me saying they needed a locus map on the plan, since it's on their checklist.?ÿ Three streets intersecting, a north arrow, reference to the tax map/parcel, I mean, how could you not know where this lot is?

So, I copied and inserted a locus map in the corner that looked just like the plan itself, just showing the lot and the three streets labeled.?ÿ That let them check the box.?ÿ What the heck
