Show all projections beyond face of wall and indicate the portion of wall on the property and the portion on adjoining
property, and whether subject to beam rights. The thickness of walls throughout entire length should be shown. If

premises. Lot numbers of the property in question and of adjoining lots must be shown.

windows, etc., by or on adjoining property, or on abutting streets, must be indicated with the extent of such
encroachments.
7. Building and Lot Lines. All buildings on property must be shown with dimensions and relation to lot and
building lines. If conditions in chain of title or zoning ordinances require building to be set back specified distances
from street or property line survey must show measured distance from the building to the line. In acreage surveys
buildings may be plotted to scaled positions.
8. Area Contiguity. Show acreage of the property except in cases of small lots.

furnished with a consolidated description. Caution should be used to see that there are no strips or gores.

monumentations appearing on the premises. Map should show arrow pointing north and give scale of distances.
11. Certificates of Survey. All maps must show city or town, county and state where premises are located with
such other notations as will accurately identify property surveyed. The certificate on the survey must be dated as of
date survey was made, signed by the surveyor, and be to the effect that the survey was actually made on the ground
as per record description and is correct, and that there are no encroachments either way across the property lines
except as shown on the survey.
12. The survey accompanying the "Surveyor's Report and Certification" should be a map or plat of the premises
in question which should be prepared and certified by the surveyor in accordance with the requirements set forth
