Berkeley is a small west-suburban Cook County village of about 5,000, a compact and fully developed residential community within Proviso Township. Its established lots were platted decades ago and a survey brings them current for today’s projects. A plat of survey is the standard tool Berkeley owners use to confirm their boundaries.
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.
Berkeley counts roughly 5,000 residents and is coextensive with Proviso Township in west Cook County. The village is a small, built-out residential community with single-family homes on modest lots, where garages and additions often sit close to the platted line and encroachments can surface during a project or sale. Recorded plats for Berkeley properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division following the 2020 consolidation of the Recorder of Deeds. Berkeley sits within the Des Plaines River drainage overseen by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, so parcels near the river corridor can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas.
Official resources for Berkeley property owners
Berkeley’s modest lots leave limited clearance between structures and the boundary, so a plat of survey precisely locates improvements and confirms the setbacks available before an addition, garage, or fence.
Berkeley corresponds to Proviso Township, though plats are recorded county-wide through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division.
Parcels near the Des Plaines River corridor may fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, which a surveyor can identify and document if needed.
