United States:
Important Changes Resulting From New ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey Standards
To print this article, all you need is to be registered or login on Mondaq.com.
As a follow up to my colleague Allan Caggiano's post here on the new 2016 ALTA/NSPS Land Title
Survey Standards, the Planning & Zoning Resource Company (PZR)
has recently circulated an important advisory on the practical
effects of the new survey standards and the interaction between the
surveyor and the zoning report that is typically provided by a
third party like PZR.
As a result of changes to item 6 of Table A regarding the
provision of zoning information to the surveyor, the typical
sequence of ordering surveys and zoning reports may need to change.
It may now be more advisable to order a survey and zoning report
simultaneously so that a draft survey can be provided to PZR to
complete its zoning report and then send the zoning report back to
the surveyor to finalize the survey by adding zoning information or
graphically depicting setback requirements on the survey. Click
this link for the full advisory from PZR.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
