Maple Park is a small village on the western edge of Kane County, set in open farmland and drained by minor creeks rather than a major river. Its FEMA flood exposure is limited and localized. Nearly all parcels sit outside mapped floodplain, and a surveyed elevation resolves any near a drainageway.
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.

Maple Park, with roughly 1,433 residents, sits in Cortland Township, with the majority of the village in Kane County. The surrounding rural land drains through small creeks toward the Fox and Kishwaukee systems, and FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas here are limited to those minor corridors. Where a building is near mapped floodplain, a FEMA Elevation Certificate completed by a licensed surveyor compares its lowest floor to the Base Flood Elevation, which insurers use to rate flood coverage, the village uses for permit review, and owners use to pursue a Letter of Map Amendment. Deeds for the Kane County portion of Maple Park are filed with the Kane County Recorder in Geneva.
No. Maple Park’s flood exposure is limited to minor rural creek corridors, so nearly all parcels lie outside the FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area.
The majority of Maple Park is in Kane County and recorded with the Kane County Recorder; land on the DeKalb side is recorded there instead.
It documents your building’s elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation so flood insurance can be rated, permits reviewed, and map amendments pursued.
