What's all the Surveying about anyhow?

Surveyors from a company called North Star have been around the park putting marks on roads. The one you will see all over the streets in and out of the park is a right angle... Something like an "L" but with each leg about 4ft long. These marks are used to line up pictures taken from an aerial survey of the county. The last survey I've been told was 1985 I think.

This happens every so often because maps become so outdated with the construction that takes place in an area that they become less and less meaningful. Planning dept's and First Responders will benefit greatly from the new mapping.
