Monee is a small village in southeastern Will County drained by headwater creeks rather than a major river, so its FEMA flood exposure is limited and localized. Most of the community sits on higher ground. A surveyed elevation is what confirms whether a specific lot touches the few mapped areas.
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.

Monee, home to about 5,128 people, sits in Monee Township within Will County. The area drains through small creek corridors that feed the region’s larger watersheds, and FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas here are limited to those minor waterways. Where a building is near mapped floodplain, a FEMA Elevation Certificate completed by a licensed Illinois surveyor establishes its lowest-floor elevation against 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. The Will County Recorder of Deeds in the county seat of Joliet records Monee’s deeds.
Monee’s flood exposure is limited and tied to small creek corridors; the majority of the village lies outside the FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area.
Consider one if your property is in or near a mapped flood zone and you need to rate flood insurance, obtain a floodplain permit, or seek a Letter of Map Amendment.
A licensed professional land surveyor or qualified engineer measures the elevations and certifies the Elevation Certificate; it can’t be self-certified by the owner.
