(a) Monuments shall be set by or under the direction of the surveyor so that, upon completion of the survey, each property and lot corner and each referenced control station shall be physically set monuments. When it is impossible or impractical to set an exact monument, a reference monument shall be set, preferably along one (1) of the property or lot lines which intersect the exact location. Such reference monuments shall be clearly identified as such on all plats and in all deed descriptions for such properties or lots.
(b) All monuments set by or under the direction of the surveyor shall be as follows:
(1) Composed of durable material.
(2) Have a minimum length of thirty (30) inches.
(3) Have a minimum cross sectional area of 0.20 square inches.
(4) Be identified with a durable marker bearing the surveyor's identification number and/or name or company name.
(5) Be detectable with conventional instruments for finding ferrous or magnetic objects.
(c) If it is not possible or practical for an exact monument or reference monument to be set, due to physical obstructions such as pavements, large rocks or roots, utilities or other obstruction, alternate monumentation may be used. Such alternate monumentation shall be as durable and clearly identifiable as required for other monuments and shall be subject to the approval of the City.
