Missouri Code of State Regulations › Title 2 - DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE › Division 90 - Weights, Measures and Consumer Protection › Chapter 60 - Missouri Standards for Property Boundary Surveys › Section 2 CSR 90-60.020 - Definitions

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: This rule is being amended to more clearly
				  define an original survey.
(1)
				Condominium Survey-A property boundary survey that creates and defines
				condominium property in accordance with Chapter 448, RSMo.
(2) Controlling Corners-Those corners that
				determine the location of the exterior corners of the surveyed
				boundary.
(3) Exterior
				Corners-Corners that define the shape and size of the parcel.
(4) Material Variations-The differences
				between surveyed lines and lines of possession or measurements called for in
				the record source of the property being surveyed that are, in the professional
				judgment of the professional land surveyor, significant enough to warrant
				particular notice.
(5) Original
				Survey-A survey which creates a new parcel. Boundary adjustment plats,
				consolidation plats, riparian plats, lot splits, and minor subdivisions are
				examples of original surveys.
(6)
				Physical Monument-Natural or artificial objects which are accepted and used to
				mark boundaries and corners.
(7)
				Positional Uncertainty-The positive and negative range of values expected for a
				computed horizontal position as a result of random errors.
(8) Property Boundary Survey-Any survey that
				creates, defines, marks, remarks, retraces, or reestablishes the boundaries of
				parcels of real property or the subdivision of lands.
(9) Property Description-A description of the
				limits of real property by recitation of metes and bounds or by an aliquot part
				of the United States Public Land Survey System or by lot or parcel designation
				referenced to a subdivision, survey, or other document recorded in the public
				records.
(10) Random
				Errors-Unavoidable errors in measurement that are caused by the inability of
				the operator to make exact measurements. (Random errors generally follow
				statistical principles and can be reduced with care in measurement, but can
				never be completely eliminated).
(11) Record Title Boundaries-The limits of
				real property ownership as evidenced and provable by one (1) or more written
				means of real property transfer and having provided constructive notification
				by being duly entered into the public records.
(12) Rural Property-Any property that is not
				urban property.
(13) Subdivision-A
				property boundary survey that partitions land into two (2) or more parcels by
				platting the divisions of land in accordance with Chapter 445, RSMo.
(14) Systematic Errors-Errors in measurement
				that conform to mathematical and physical laws and remain the same under set
				conditions. Systematic errors are detectible and can be removed by ensuring the
				proper adjustment of equipment, by applying appropriate corrections to
				observations and by using appropriate observation techniques to eliminate the
				effects of imperfection in equipment manufacture.
(15) United States Public Land Survey
				Corners-Those points that determine the boundaries of the various subdivisions
				of the United States Public Land Survey as set forth in section
				60.301(1),
				RSMo.
(16) Urban Property-Any
				property that is located wholly or partly within the corporate limits of any
				municipality or any commercial, industrial, or multi-unit developmental
				property.
