Marseilles is a small city of about 4,845 on the Illinois River in eastern LaSalle County, downstream from Ottawa. Its riverfront setting and older residential lots make a plat of survey a practical step before a sale, addition, or boundary question is resolved. A current survey confirms where the recorded lines fall on today’s ground.
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.
Marseilles lies primarily in Manlius Township with reach into Rutland and Brookfield Townships, positioned along the Illinois River east of the county seat at Ottawa. Because the Illinois River runs through the area, some parcels near the water fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas that a plat of survey can depict alongside the boundary. Plats are recorded with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa. A licensed Illinois surveyor retraces the platted lot, recovers or sets monuments, and flags easements and encroachments affecting the parcel.
Parcels near the Illinois River can intersect mapped flood hazard areas, so a plat of survey can show those lines in addition to the boundary. That information supports permitting and insurance decisions.
It is frequently requested by lenders and title companies even when not strictly required by law. Having a current plat clarifies boundaries and any encroachments for the buyer.
The LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa records plats and deeds for Marseilles and the rest of the county.
