Sounds like a replay of the Georgia county line battle a few years ago.?ÿ Last I knew the surveyor got the shaft and the counties had vowed to continue to disagree. ?ÿ Just did a search and found an August 9, 2018 newspaper article from the Monroe County Reporter.?ÿ The battle continues and the surveyor is still being painted as the bad guy.
EDIT: "And the beat goes on!"?ÿ
Court of Appeals of Georgia, Fourth Division.
Decided: October 15, 2018.
We're still doing something wrong, that the public's perception of us remains that of being just an overly expensive simple procedure, or a hindrance to their plans.?ÿ They seem to place little value in it, thinking that our GPS can just point to where their boundaries are.

The problem being most land surveyors present themselves as an expert measurer.?ÿ Land Surveyors measure to collect evidence to the corner.?ÿ The corner is determined by the "preponderance of evidence".?ÿ?ÿ

I don't think the problem is one of presentation. I think too many surveyors are just expert measures, and to be frank, with modern equipment it doesnt take the brightest bulb in the the box to be one.?ÿ
So the elected county officials who took an oath to uphold the code of Virginia vote to circumvent state code over 23 properties.?ÿ Say 46 votes.
And all this comes to light only after the latest election.?ÿ WTF
SURE LETS SET A PRECEDENCE
A small town with little money wanted to extend their limits and I used Google Earth to pick locations and sent them kmz file and the lat and long in a description for random locations that did not follow any property boundaies.
Their original town metes and bounds description did not close.
It all depends that they get the wording correct for their boundary.
