Burr Ridge is drained by Flagg Creek and tributaries of the Des Plaines and DuPage River systems along its edges. Flood exposure concentrates along those channels, marking where an Elevation Certificate is most applicable within the village.
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.

Burr Ridge has about 11,192 residents and sits in Lyons Township within DuPage County, whose seat is Wheaton. Where Flagg Creek and area tributaries create mapped floodplain, a licensed surveyor’s Elevation Certificate documents a structure’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 part of Burr Ridge, documents are recorded through the DuPage County Recorder of Deeds.
No, flood exposure is limited to parcels near the village’s creeks and tributaries; most of Burr Ridge sits outside mapped flood hazard areas.
It is a FEMA form completed by a surveyor documenting a building’s floor elevations against the Base Flood Elevation for insurance and floodplain purposes.
Its measured elevation data is the technical evidence FEMA reviews when deciding whether to remove a structure from the mapped floodplain.
