Aroma Park sits where the Iroquois River joins the Kankakee River, a confluence that makes flood exposure a genuine concern for this small village. Riverside parcels can fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, and an Elevation Certificate is how owners document a building’s height against the Base Flood Elevation. With two rivers meeting nearby, that measurement carries real weight here.
A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents your building’s elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation on the FEMA flood map. Insurers use it to rate flood policies and communities use it to confirm floodplain compliance; it can also support a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) to remove a structure from a flood zone.

The village of Aroma Park, home to about 664 residents in Aroma Township, sits at the junction of the Iroquois and Kankakee Rivers, so its floodplain is shaped by two river corridors rather than one. A FEMA Elevation Certificate completed by a licensed Illinois surveyor records the lowest floor against the Base Flood Elevation, letting an insurer rate a flood policy from measured data and giving the floodplain administrator what is needed for a permit near the water. Where the survey shows the building above the Base Flood Elevation, the certificate supports a Letter of Map Amendment to FEMA. Deeds for Aroma Park parcels are recorded by the Kankakee County Recorder of Deeds at the county seat in Kankakee. Because two rivers meet here, floodplain status in Aroma Park warrants careful attention from owners.
Aroma Park sits where the Iroquois River joins the Kankakee River, so it is influenced by two river floodplains and their combined Special Flood Hazard Areas.
The certificate itself works the same way, measuring the building against the Base Flood Elevation, though a confluence location often means more parcels fall within the mapped floodplain.
Yes, a single Elevation Certificate can serve flood insurance rating and, if the lowest floor is high enough, support a Letter of Map Amendment to FEMA.
