HomeServicesPlat of Subdivision › Lyons, IL

Lyons is a compact west suburban village along the Des Plaines River with older residential blocks and commercial frontage. With most of its land built out, a plat of subdivision here usually supports a lot split, a redevelopment parcel, or the re-platting of a riverfront or commercial tract rather than a new subdivision. Broad new subdivisions of open land are uncommon in a village this fully built.

Lyons & Cook County specifics

Lyons has roughly 10,800 residents and spans the Lyons and Riverside townships in western Cook County, along the Des Plaines River. Its riverfront setting means subdivision work often involves floodplain, drainage, and easement considerations. A plat of subdivision must comply with the village’s subdivision and zoning ordinances before Lyons approves it. The recorded plat is submitted to the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, successor to the Recorder of Deeds since December 2020, entering the new lots into the county’s official land records.
