P15-090 Carlos Padilla
The Board established that Respondent accepted client's payment up front, then promised client that the survey would take about a week. The project took five months to complete and, as of December 2016, client still had not received a drawing. The Board thereby established cause to discipline Mr. Padilla's registration under A.RS.§ 32-128(C)(4) and A.A.C. R4-30-301(2). The Board established that in performing client's survey, Respondent relied exclusively on mathematical calculations to reject existing monuments at all four corners of the property, instead of also considering recorded documents and fences and other physical evidence, and failed to contact the surveyor whose monuments he rejected, in violation of ABSMS #1, #2, #4, #7, and #8(A). The Board thereby established cause to discipline Mr. Padilla's registration under A.R.S. § 32-128(C)(4) and A.A.C. R4-30-301 (13). Respondent's survey fell below the standard of care for registered surveyors, thereby establishing cause to discipline Respondent's registration under A.R.S. § 32-128(C)(4) and A.A.C. R4-30-301(6).
