Oakbrook Terrace is a small city adjacent to the Salt Creek corridor at the eastern edge of DuPage County. Flood exposure is limited to parcels near the creek, so an Elevation Certificate is most relevant for those bordering the mapped flood hazard area.
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.

Oakbrook Terrace has about 2,751 residents within York Township in DuPage County, whose seat is Wheaton. Where the Salt Creek corridor creates mapped floodplain along the city’s edge, a licensed surveyor’s Elevation Certificate ties a building’s lowest-floor elevation to the Base Flood Elevation. That record enables accurate flood-insurance rating, supports floodplain-development permits, and can back a Letter of Map Amendment. Oakbrook Terrace survey documents are recorded through the DuPage County Recorder of Deeds.

Flood exposure is limited to parcels near the Salt Creek corridor; most of the small city lies outside mapped flood hazard areas, so an Elevation Certificate applies to affected parcels only.
It is a FEMA form completed by a surveyor recording a building’s floor elevations relative to the Base Flood Elevation for insurance and floodplain purposes.
Its surveyed elevation data is the evidence FEMA reviews when deciding whether to remove a building from the mapped floodplain.
