Chapter 22.56 — SURVEY AND MONUMENTS

The procedures and practices for all survey work done in conduction with the preparation of the map shall conform to the provisions of Cal. Bus. & Prof. Chapter 15 (the Land Surveyor's Act of the state of California), and shall have an allowable error of closure on any portion thereof not to exceed 1/10,000. ('86 Code, § 22.56.010) (Ord. 4120, passed - - )

Pursuant to Cal. Gov't Code § 66495, durable monuments shall be set at the time of making the survey for the final map or parcel map. Such monuments shall conform to the standards described in Cal. Bus. & Prof. § 8771 so that another engineer or surveyor may readily retrace the survey.

('86 Code, § 22.56.020) (Ord. 4120, passed - - )

Durable monuments shall be set at all angle and curve points on the exterior boundary of subdivisions, and at points not more than 1,000 feet apart in cases where exterior boundaries between any two angle or curve points exceed the distance. Monuments shall be set as follows:

(A) All monuments shall be tagged or marked with the registration or license number of the engineer or surveyor who signed the map.

(B) A boundary monument shall not be less substantial than an iron pipe of a two-inch outside diameter, not less that 30 inches in length, with concrete plug and tag, and set no higher than flush with the surface of the ground— 2" L.P. &T.

(1) If the tag is not secured by the con-crete, a brass tack shall secure the tag. In areas subject to dishing, pipes must be set no less than six inches deep, and in areas subject to commercial culti-vation, no less than 12 inches deep.

• (2) Acceptable substitute monuments are:

• (a) A lead, brass tack and tag set in concrete — L.T.&T.

• (b) A six-inch spike, stamped washer and tin set in A.C.— S.W.&T.

• (3) Any other substitutes shall be approved in writing by the City Engineer before setting.

• (C) State depth of all 2" I.P.&T.'s set on the map or use a depth of monument note.

• ('86 Code, § 22.56.030) (Ord. 4120, passed - - )

(A) A durable monument shall be set at each angle and curve point in the boundary of each lot, which portion is not covered in § 22.52.030 of this chapter. Monuments shall be set as follows:

• (1) All monuments shall be tagged or marked with the registration or license number of the engineer or surveyor who signed the map.

(2) Each monument shall not be less substantial than a two-inch by two-inch by 12-inch (2" x 2" x 12") redwood stake, with nail and metal tag, set as described under § 22.52.030.2 of this chapter.

• (B) Acceptable substitute monuments are:

(1) Two-inch by two-inch by 12-inch (2" x 2" x 12") redwood stake, with brass tack and tag, when set in concrete sidewalk, curb, wall or pavement;

• (2) A six-inch spike, stamped washer and tin, set in asphaltic concrete.

('86 Code, § 22.56.040) (Ord. 4120, passed - - )

• (A) Centerline monument shall be placed at the following locations:

• (1) All points of intersection with the centerline of other streets or alleys;

• (2) All points of beginning and end of curves, or at the points of intersection of tangents or semi-tangents of

curves;

(3) All points of intersection with the subdivision boundary except where the subdivision boundary is a street sideline. In cases where a street terminates at the subdivision boundary and is planned for future extension, the terminal centerline monu-ment shall be set on an offset no less than three feet and no greater, than five feet along the centerline inside the subdivision boundary;

• (4) All angle points.

• (B) All monuments shall be tagged or marked with the registration or license number of the engineer or surveyor who signed the map.

• (C) Each centerline monument shall be not less durable than:

• (1) A six-inch monument spike, marked washer and tin in A.C.;

• (2) A lead, brass tack and tag in concrete or cement concrete;

(3) An iron pipe of a two-inch outside diameter, not less than 30 inches in length, with concrete plug and tag no less than six inches deep in unimproved, gravelled or oiled surface. If the tag is not secured by the concrete, a brass tack shall secure the tag.

• (D) Any substitute monument shall be approved in writing by the City Engineer before setting.

• (E) Centerline ties.

• (1) If the intersection is improved with con-crete curbs, set four L. & T.'s (using brass tacks) as tangent ties on curbs.

(2) If the intersection is not improved with concrete curbs, set four tangent ties, no less than four feet from the centerline monument.

• (a) If the ties fall on the pavement, they shall be set approximately two feet from the edge of pavement.

1. If in A.C., use 6" monument spikes and tins.

2. If in concrete, use brass tacks set in lead.

(b) If the ties must be set off of the pavement, use iron pipes of a 2" outside diameter, 30" in length, with concrete plugs and brass tacks, set in natural ground no closer than two feet from the edge of pavement, and no less than six inches deep.

• (3) Any substitute centerline tie should be approved in writing by the City Engineer before setting.

• (4) If it is impractical to set tangent ties, the City Engineer may approve, in writing, deviation from tangent ties.

• (5) Notes showing centerline ties are to be filed in the office of the City Engineer after inspection.

(A) Pursuant to Cal. Gov't Code § 66497 within five days after the final setting of all monuments. The engineer or surveyor shall provide written notice to the subdivider and to the City Engineer that the final monuments have been set.

(B) The subdivider shall present evidence to the City Council confirming payment to the engineer or surveyor for setting of the final monuments. If no such evidence is presented and the engineer or surveyor notifies the City Council that no such payment has been received, then the city shall, within three months from the date of such notification, pay the engineer or surveyor, from any deposit the amount due.
