Lake Barrington sits along the Fox River in the southwestern corner of Lake County, with the river forming a mapped floodplain along the village. Riverside parcels fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas where an Elevation Certificate is most valuable.
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.

Lake Barrington is home to about 5,100 residents in Cuba Township, part of Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. The Fox River runs along the village, so 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. Lake Barrington records along the Fox River are entered through the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office.
The Fox River borders Lake Barrington and creates a mapped floodplain, so riverside parcels commonly need an Elevation Certificate for insurance and permitting.
It is a FEMA form prepared by a surveyor documenting a building’s floor elevations against the Base Flood Elevation for insurance and floodplain purposes.
If it shows the lowest floor is at or above the Base Flood Elevation, it can support a more favorable flood-insurance rating.
