Florida moved on the 11th of March to eliminate Land Surveying as a profession.
Ā
As many of you may be aware this is something I have been warning Land Surveyors about for several years now.

Florida also proposes to remove penalties for breaking current laws regarding Land Surveying. This means you can pretty much do anything and call it a Land Survey and you are free to call yourself a Land Surveyor even though you have no experience, education or training as one.

This is being brought toĀ via your local Tea Party small government front for large corporate interests. I have no doubt that the Title Insurance industry is behind this move.

If you are not in Florida or Texas I assure you that your state will be next.
