Algonquin & McHenry County specifics

Algonquin Township gives the village its name within McHenry County, straddling the Fox River and extending toward Kane County. New construction and site improvements rely on contour and elevation data for grading and stormwater design. Because the Fox River corridor carries FEMA flood hazard areas, topographic surveys often support floodplain analysis. Deeds for the McHenry County portion are recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in the county seat of Woodstock. A CAD topographic survey gives Algonquin’s engineers a reliable model of the existing site.
