Peter, I've seen land under water on AC staked out with very tall stakes and yes, you're right, stakes can be moved. If you're a buyer who's worried about that, the only way to make sure that doesn't happen is to go out to the property with the surveyor yourself or have him/her videotape the process so you can see where your lot is compared to non-moving landmarks like that road that we all have seen pictures of, etc.
If I was an enterprising surveyor down on AC, seems to me this is a whole new market that "out of area" buyers especially would love.
