Lincolnshire sits along the Des Plaines River in southeastern Lake County, with the river forming a mapped floodplain through the village. Riverside parcels fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas where an Elevation Certificate is most valuable.
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.
Lincolnshire is home to roughly 7,940 residents in Vernon Township, part of Lake County, seated at Waukegan. The Des Plaines River runs through the village, so a surveyor’s Elevation Certificate documents a building’s lowest-floor elevation against the Base Flood Elevation. Owners use it to rate flood insurance, clear floodplain-development permit conditions, and support a Letter of Map Amendment. Lincolnshire records along the Des Plaines River are entered through the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office.
The Des Plaines River runs through Lincolnshire and creates a mapped floodplain, so riverside parcels commonly need an Elevation Certificate for insurance and permitting.
To rate or lower flood insurance, confirm floodplain-permit compliance, and support a Letter of Map Amendment.
A licensed professional land surveyor measures the elevations and certifies the FEMA form.
