Loves Park lies along the Rock River just north of Rockford in Winnebago County, placing much of the city near the river corridor that carries substantial FEMA floodplain mapping. Riverfront and low-lying parcels can fall within a Special Flood Hazard Area. A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents a building’s elevation against the Base Flood Elevation for insurance and permitting.
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.

Loves Park has a population of about 23,397 and sits primarily in Harlem Township in Winnebago County, extending along the Rock River just north of Rockford, with a small portion reaching into Boone County. Because the river runs along the community, riverfront and low-lying lots here are among the more likely in the county to be mapped into a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. A licensed surveyor prepares the Elevation Certificate by measuring the lowest-floor, equipment, and grade elevations against the Base Flood Elevation, giving insurers the basis to rate coverage and the city and county the data for floodplain permitting. When a building is documented above the flood level, the certificate can support a Letter of Map Amendment. For the Winnebago County portion, records are handled by the Winnebago County Recorder in Rockford.

For the Winnebago County portion of Loves Park, survey documents are recorded through the Winnebago County Recorder in Rockford; any parcel in the Boone County portion is recorded in Boone County.
