Montgomery spans the Fox River at the northern edge of Kendall County, extending toward Aurora, which places much of the village near the river corridor that shapes local FEMA flood mapping. Riverfront and low-lying parcels can be mapped into a Special Flood Hazard Area. A FEMA Elevation Certificate records 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.

Montgomery has a population of about 20,262 and lies primarily in Kendall County within Aurora Township, straddling the Fox River near the border with Aurora. Because the river runs through the community, riverfront and low-lying lots here are among the more likely in the county to fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. A licensed surveyor completes the Elevation Certificate by measuring the lowest-floor, equipment, and grade elevations against the Base Flood Elevation, so insurers can rate coverage and the village and county can review floodplain permits. If a structure is documented above the flood level, the certificate can support a Letter of Map Amendment. For the Kendall County portion, records are handled by the Kendall County Clerk & Recorder in the seat at Yorkville.
Yes. Because Montgomery straddles the Fox River, riverfront and low-lying parcels can fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area tied to the river corridor.
For the Kendall County portion of Montgomery, survey documents are recorded through the Kendall County Clerk & Recorder in Yorkville.
It is the height floodwaters are expected to reach in a one-percent-annual-chance flood; the Elevation Certificate compares your building’s floor to that height to determine insurance rating and permit compliance.
