Highwood is a compact lakefront city with a walkable downtown and residential blocks set among its larger neighbors. A plat of subdivision is the recorded instrument that separates a parcel into lots, blocks, and the easements needed to serve them.
A plat of subdivision divides a parcel into lots, blocks, streets and easements in compliance with the municipality’s subdivision and zoning ordinances, then is recorded with the county. It is the foundation of any residential or commercial development.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Highwood has about 5,074 residents and lies within Moraine Township in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. A subdivision plat must conform to the city subdivision and zoning ordinance and pass local review before it is recorded through the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office. Because drainage moves toward Lake Michigan and area tributaries, drainage easements are commonly dedicated on the plat. Pi Surveying completes the field survey, lot geometry, and easement detail for these plats.
It centers on dividing or reconfiguring existing parcels rather than open land, and any such division must be recorded on a plat of subdivision.
Recording gives each new lot a clear legal description and public record, which is essential for permitting, financing, and conveyance.
The city reviews and approves the plat under its ordinance before it is submitted to the Lake County Clerk’s Recording Division.
