North Aurora sits on the Fox River just above Aurora, so its riverside parcels carry FEMA flood exposure while much of the village extends onto higher ground. The mapped floodplain tracks the river corridor. A surveyed elevation is what reveals whether a specific lot is inside or clear of it.
A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents your building’s elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation on the FEMA flood map. Insurers use it to rate flood policies and communities use it to confirm floodplain compliance; it can also support a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) to remove a structure from a flood zone.

North Aurora, with roughly 18,261 residents, is anchored in Aurora Township with reach into Sugar Grove and Blackberry townships, within Kane County. The Fox River flows through the village, and FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas follow that corridor. A FEMA Elevation Certificate, completed by a licensed surveyor, documents a building’s lowest floor against the Base Flood Elevation, giving insurers a basis to rate flood coverage, the village a way to confirm floodplain-permit compliance, and owners the evidence for a Letter of Map Amendment. Deeds for North Aurora parcels are recorded with the Kane County Recorder in the county seat of Geneva.
Yes. The Fox River runs through North Aurora, and FEMA maps a Special Flood Hazard Area along it, so riverside parcels carry flood exposure.
It is FEMA’s official finding that a property sits above the Base Flood Elevation and can be removed from the mapped flood zone; the Elevation Certificate provides the survey basis for it.
You engage a licensed Illinois surveyor to measure your building’s elevations and complete FEMA’s certificate form for your property.
