Arlington Heights is one of the largest suburbs in Chicago’s northwest corner, a community of nearly 78,000 spread across several townships. Its mix of postwar subdivisions and newer infill means owners regularly need a plat of survey to confirm boundaries before building, buying, or refinancing. In a village this size, that document quietly underpins a great deal of local property activity.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
With a population approaching 78,000, Arlington Heights spans portions of Wheeling, Elk Grove, and Palatine Townships in northwest Cook County. Much of the village grew through mid-century subdivision development, and today teardown-and-rebuild activity and large additions are common, each raising precise questions about lot lines, easements, and setbacks. Recorded plats for Arlington Heights parcels are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which took over the recording role from the Recorder of Deeds in 2020. Portions of the village drain toward the Des Plaines River system under the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, so lots near tributaries can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas that a survey helps identify.
Official resources for Arlington Heights property owners
Most order one for a home purchase, a refinance, or before a teardown, addition, fence, or pool, since Arlington Heights permit reviews and title closings rely on a current plat to confirm boundaries and setbacks.
Arlington Heights spans Wheeling, Elk Grove, and Palatine Townships, so the answer depends on your parcel. Township, however, does not change where the plat is recorded.
They are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, the office that now handles recording for all of Cook County.
