Is the R/W readily apparent, like at back of sidewalks, or will it need to be established first? What is the R/W width?

How many cross streets?

How close are your bench marks or will you use GPS derived elevations?

Survey width: R/W width + 10’ south of R/W and 20’ north of R/W or to the face of an existing building
1 *At intersections, survey 100’ of intersecting roads
2 *1’ topo and spot elevations (SPC, NAVD88, & Benchmark description)
3 *All utilities above and below ground (as marked by 811)
4 *Easements outside R/W (easements provided by Client to Surveyor)
5 *Rim/ Inverts of manholes and storm inlets
6 *Trees with diameter size (if applicable)
7 *Lane widths, striping, signage, curbing, drives, sidewalk, etc
8 *FFE of adjoining buildings and door locations

Eliminate 4,7 and 8 and add x-sections at 100' intervals, 24 x 36" drawings showing baselines with coordinates at all pc's, pt's, pi's, R. O. W. intersections, beginnings and endings of Baselines, extra control points when all of the above are more than 1,000' apart and the City of Houston pays between $4.00 and $5.50 per foot.

I don't understand what #2 means, but COH needs all hard vertical data to have no more than one inch of error. Of course, vertical control points should have no more than 0.02 foot of error between any 2 adjoining points.

All horizontal and vertical information must be expressed in units using the current NSRS standards.

the RIGHT OF WAY

The R/W monumentation is to be shown as recovered when discovered. NO monuments are to be set, boundary markers/corners "as found"... nothing extra.

Yes there is a sidewalk.

Price the client, not the work.

All I need is one of those new-fangled dollars that Granny on the Beverly Hillbillies heard about. She said they were called millieyun dollars. Jed Clampett was getting paid in millieyun dollars.
