Owner Declaration
Owner declarations should match site facts and submitted drawings.
Truthful Measurement
Measurements should not be adjusted to fit a preferred approval outcome.
Correction Duty
Known errors should be corrected before submission or certification.
Liability Trail
Keep records that show what was measured, assumed, verified and signed.

The surveyor-safe answer protects current local rule, measured facts, drawing consistency, owner and neighbour evidence, municipal review trail and licensed signature responsibility together.
Role Boundary, Signature and Liability: review cue
For Licensed Surveyor review, ask whether the answer follows the official workflow and can be defended later in an audit.
