Review
· Is the Basis of Bearing labeled? Even if the Basis of Bearing is described in a note on the face of the plat, the Basis must be labeled.
· Does the Basis of Bearing match any plats or surveys of record on the adjacent parcels? If the Basis of Bearing does not match, is there any call to the bearings of record?
