Bensenville lies near Salt Creek and the Addison Creek watershed at the northeastern edge of DuPage County. Parcels along those channels can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas, defining where an Elevation Certificate is most relevant.
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.

Bensenville has about 18,813 residents and is associated with Leyden Township, part of DuPage County, which is administered from the seat in Wheaton. Where Salt Creek and connected drainageways create mapped floodplain, a licensed surveyor’s Elevation Certificate documents a building’s lowest-floor elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation. That record enables accurate flood-insurance rating, supports floodplain-development permits, and can back a Letter of Map Amendment. For the DuPage County portion of Bensenville, survey documents are recorded through the DuPage County Recorder of Deeds.
