Waterman & DeKalb County specifics

Waterman is a village of about 1,433 residents in Clinton Township, DeKalb County. A subdivision plat prepared here conforms with the applicable subdivision and zoning ordinance and is recorded with the DeKalb County Recorder in the county seat of Sycamore. DeKalb County lies in the Kishwaukee River watershed, so parcels near mapped waterways may involve FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas relevant to easement and drainage layout. Review of lot configuration and easements generally comes before recording. Pi Surveying PLLC drafts each Waterman plat to meet village review and record accurately at the county.
