Island Lake is a Lake County village of roughly 8,051 residents in Wauconda Township, in the western part of the county extending into McHenry County near the Fox River. A community centered on its namesake lake, it has many near-water and modest-lot parcels. A plat of survey is especially useful here for confirming boundaries and floodplain relationships.
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.
Island Lake has about 8,051 residents in Wauconda Township in western Lake County, with part of the village reaching into McHenry County. Plats and deeds for the Lake County portion are recorded with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan, the county seat to the east. This part of the county drains toward the Fox River watershed, and with the lake and wetlands nearby, some Island Lake parcels sit within or near FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas that a plat of survey helps identify. Across the village’s lakeside and inland lots, a current survey is the reliable way to establish boundaries, easements and setbacks for improvements and closings.
