Senate Bill 1296 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 62-18-124(d), to establish new requirements for licensed land surveyors conducting boundary surveys. The bill mandates that surveyors must notify all adjoining landowners, including nonresident and absentee owners, about the boundary survey. This notification must be sent via certified mail to the current address used for mailing property tax notices within five business days of the survey's completion.

The bill aims to enhance communication and transparency between land surveyors and property owners, ensuring that all relevant parties are informed of boundary surveys that may affect their properties. The new provisions will take effect on July 1, 2023, emphasizing the importance of timely notification in the surveying process.
