County Surveyor

The County Surveyor’s primary task is to oversee the County Remonumentation Program. This is a State mandated program self funded by document recording fees. Local surveyors are contracted through the County for the systematic maintenance and preservation of the 3067 Government Corners in Berrien County. These corners are the reference points for the description and location of every piece of land in Berrien County used directly or indirectly by surveyors, attorneys, realtors, title companies and property owners.
