Section 270.020 - Survey may be made; preparation and contents of map1. The city council, or other legislative board of any such city, upon its own motion or resolution or upon the petition of any property holder and taxpayer within the city, affected by such loss, destruction, uncertainty, ambiguity, confusion or conflict, may instruct and employ the city surveyor or the county surveyor of the county in which the city is situate, or any other professional land surveyor, to make a complete survey of such city or of such part thereof or addition thereto and to prepare a correct and accurate map or plat of such survey, upon which map or plat all of the blocks, lots, streets, alleys, highways, parks, school property, cemeteries and other properties devoted to public use must be shown.2. The map or plat must show by course and distance accurate ties with well-known and established section, or quarter section, corner or corners, and with some permanent artificial monument or monuments erected or constructed with definite and exact relation to the center line of the streets of such city or such part thereof or addition thereto and with such marks or monuments of original surveys as may be found and identified, together with an accurate description of each such section, or quarter section, corner, monument or mark.3. The map must be entitled substantially as follows: "Map of survey of city of ................(or of........ addition to city of ................, as the case may be) under the provisions of chapter 270 of NRS and in accordance with a resolution of the board of supervisors of the city of ................ (or as the case may be). Passed ................ (giving date)."4. The map must bear the sworn certificate of the surveyor making the same and must be made upon vellum, tracing cloth or other material of a permanent nature generally used for such purpose in the engineering profession, and must be drawn to a convenient scale sufficiently large to show clearly all lines and corners of blocks, lots, streets, alleys, highways, parks, school property, cemeteries and other property devoted to public use. Where there is any uncertainty as to the correct position, description or line of any lot, block, street, alley or other piece or parcel of property affected, or wherever there is a conflict or contradiction in point, line, numbering, lettering or other description, by reason of conflicting maps, theretofore filed or recorded, or by reason of mistakes or inaccuracies in any prior map or plat, or otherwise, the same must be clearly shown or indicated. Wherever the line on which fences, buildings or other improvements have been built in accordance with prior maps, plats or surveys, or otherwise, and the same appear to be in conflict with the lines, points or directions, as shown in the map or plat herein provided for, such conflict or conflicts must likewise be clearly shown.5. The map may be prepared in as many sections and with such changes in scale as may be necessary to show clearly the matters herein required.[2:120:1919; 1919 RL p. 2664; NCL § 1356]-(NRS A 1960, 136; 1977, 1515; 1989, 789)[2:120:1919; 1919 RL p. 2664; NCL § 1356] - (NRS A 1960, 136; 1977, 1515; 1989, 789)
