Lyons is a west-suburban Cook County village of about 11,000 set directly on the Des Plaines River, a location that has long shaped its character. That riverfront setting makes floodplain awareness a genuine part of local property work. A plat of survey helps Lyons owners understand both their boundaries and their standing on the flood maps.
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.
Lyons counts roughly 11,000 residents and spans Lyons and Riverside Townships in west Cook County. The village sits right on the Des Plaines River, and its riverside parcels fall within the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District’s drainage where FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas apply, making flood-zone review a common survey consideration. Recorded plats for Lyons properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division after the Recorder of Deeds merged into the Clerk’s office in 2020. Between older platted lots near the river and established residential blocks, surveys here regularly address encroachments, setbacks, and flood determinations together.
