Beach Park lies just inland of Lake Michigan in northeastern Lake County, drained by Kellogg Creek and Dead River-area channels toward the lake. Low-lying parcels along those channels can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas where an Elevation Certificate applies.
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.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Beach Park has about 14,249 residents in Benton Township (also Zion Township), part of Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. Local creeks and shoreline drainageways create mapped floodplain, and a licensed surveyor’s Elevation Certificate ties a building’s lowest-floor elevation to the Base Flood Elevation. That record enables accurate flood-insurance rating, supports floodplain-development permits, and can back a Letter of Map Amendment. Beach Park survey documents are recorded through the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office.
Along the village’s creeks and shoreline drainageways, where mapped flood hazard areas follow the low ground, is where an Elevation Certificate is most often needed.
It is a surveyor-completed FEMA form documenting a building’s elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation for insurance and floodplain use.
Its surveyed elevation data is the evidence FEMA reviews when deciding whether a structure lies outside the mapped floodplain.
