Zion was laid out on an unusual planned street grid in its early years, and that distinctive platting can leave lot lines and orientations that surprise owners relying on where a fence sits. Retracing the recorded plat against the monuments in the ground is essential to confirm the true line. Deed research anchors that answer in the record.
A boundary dispute survey is a careful retracement of your property lines, backed by research of deeds, prior surveys and physical evidence. It gives you — and, if needed, your attorney — a defensible determination of where the true boundary lies.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Zion, with roughly 24,655 residents, lies within Zion Township (also Benton) in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. The plats and prior surveys that govern city lots are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, the record consulted before any fieldwork. Because the city’s original grid was platted in a distinctive layout, maintained fence lines here can diverge from the recorded orientation, driving boundary questions. Pi Surveying recovers the grid-plat corners and stakes the recorded line so a fence question is settled against the true orientation.
It can, because the early planned grid produced lot layouts that may not match how owners assume the lines run. A retracement of the recorded plat confirms the true boundary.
The Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan, the Lake County seat, records the deeds and plats used to retrace Zion boundaries.
Yes. By retracing the recorded line and comparing it to where the fence stands, the survey shows whether the fence encroaches and where the boundary legally runs.
