MEMORANDUM

 

TO                                          Board of Supervisors

FROM                     Scott De Leon, Public Works Director

DATE                     March 21, 2017

SUBJECT                     Adopt Proclamation Designating the Week of March 19 - 25, 2017 as National Surveyors' Week in Lake County, California

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:  The attached Proclamation has been prepared to formally recognize March 19-25 as National Surveyors Week in Lake County.

Professional Land Surveyors follow in the footsteps of some of the most prominent individuals in American history.  Presidents Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln all began their careers as land surveyors, which is why surveyors of today claim Mt. Rushmore as a monument to “three surveyors and another guy”.  Modern day surveyors are integral to the planning, development and construction of the nation’s infrastructure and private development.

 

This event also recognizes professionals currently engaged in the field, as well as retired surveyors of which a considerable number reside in Lake County.
