Itasca sits along Salt Creek in northeastern DuPage County, where the creek carves a floodplain through the village. Buildings within the Salt Creek FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area are common candidates for an Elevation Certificate.
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.

Itasca has about 9,543 residents within Addison Township in DuPage County, whose government seat is Wheaton. Salt Creek runs through the community and creates mapped floodplain, so a licensed surveyor’s Elevation Certificate ties a building’s lowest-floor elevation to the Base Flood Elevation. Owners rely on it to rate flood insurance, meet floodplain-development permits, and support a Letter of Map Amendment. Itasca recording of completed surveys is handled by the DuPage County Recorder of Deeds.
Yes, Salt Creek passes through Itasca and creates a mapped floodplain, so nearby buildings often need an Elevation Certificate for insurance and permitting.
The flood map shows where flood hazard areas are, while the certificate documents your specific building’s elevations relative to the Base Flood Elevation.
Elevating the lowest floor above the Base Flood Elevation, documented on the certificate, generally leads to a better flood-insurance rate.
