HomeServicesConstruction Layout & Staking › Woodstock, IL

Woodstock, the McHenry County seat, centers on a historic square surrounded by residential neighborhoods and commercial and industrial districts. Construction staking converts an approved design into field marks, corners, utilities, pavement and grades, so construction matches the engineering. As the county seat, its projects benefit from layout tied closely to the recorded records held right in town.

Woodstock & McHenry County specifics

Woodstock has about 26,000 residents and lies in Dorr Township. As the McHenry County seat, its plats, easements and as-builts are recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock, and the community sits within the Kishwaukee and Fox River drainage where the county’s FEMA flood-hazard mapping applies. For commercial, industrial and residential sites, staking provides building and lot corners, utility alignments, pavement edges and grade stakes referenced to the recorded plat and to control. That layout keeps foundations and utilities within the approved envelope and clear of easements. With grades held to plan, a Woodstock site drains and sits as the county-seat project’s engineering requires.
