As-Built Survey

As-built surveys are required for:

  • Storm drainage

  • Impervious area (This survey will state the current square footage of impervious area on a specific site(s). The impervious area will be compared with the allowable amount allocated for the site(s) per the approved land development plan and associated regulation.)

  • Storm drainage BMPs

These as-built surveys with calculations (if applicable) must be submitted into Land Development’s Accela by a professional land surveyor and/or a professional engineer. The submitted plans and calculations must be sealed, signed and dated.

As-built survey general requirements and checklist can be found both in Section 10.0 and Appendix 10-1 of the Post-Construction Ordinance.
