South Elgin & Kane County specifics

South Elgin has about 24,000 residents and lies primarily within Elgin Township, with ties to St. Charles Township, in Kane County. A plat of subdivision must satisfy the village’s subdivision and zoning ordinances and pass its review before being recorded with the Kane County Recorder in Geneva, the county seat. The Fox River runs through the community, so FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas can shape how lots and drainage easements are laid out. A licensed Illinois Professional Land Surveyor lays out and certifies the geometry and dedications so the plat meets legal standards.
