§11-7-1. Number; qualifications, appointment, and term of office.

Latest version.

The county commission is authorized to appoint two surveyors for the county, who shall hold office for the term of three years and until their successors may be qualified, unless sooner removed. Before making an appointment, the court must be satisfied by evidence that the person appointed is qualified to discharge the duties of a surveyor. It is no objection that a person appointed county surveyor is a qualified surveyor of an adjacent county, but he must qualify in each county.
