Essex & Kankakee County specifics

Essex, home to roughly 840 residents in Essex Township (which extends into Grundy County), sits in the farm country of western Kankakee County, whose seat is the city of Kankakee. Because the land is flat and agricultural, staking a project usually emphasizes grades and drainage together with building corners and utility offsets so it is built to plan. Deeds and plats for the Kankakee County portion of Essex are recorded with the Kankakee County Recorder of Deeds in Kankakee. Whether the job is a new home, a small commercial structure or rural grading and utility work, construction staking marks the engineered design on the ground so the contractor has reliable field references.
