South Beloit sits on the Rock River at the northern edge of Winnebago County, directly on the Wisconsin state line, giving riverfront areas of the city real FEMA floodplain exposure. Parcels along the river and its low-lying banks 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.

South Beloit has a population of about 7,989 in Rockton Township, at the northern edge of Winnebago County on the Rock River and the Wisconsin border. Because the river runs through the community, riverfront and low-lying lots here can fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, while higher ground carries more limited exposure. A licensed surveyor completes the Elevation Certificate by measuring the lowest-floor and grade elevations against the Base Flood Elevation, giving insurers the data to rate a policy and the city and county the information for floodplain permitting. If a structure is documented above the flood level, the certificate can support a Letter of Map Amendment. Survey documents for South Beloit are recorded through the Winnebago County Recorder in the county seat of Rockford.
Yes. Because South Beloit lies on the Rock River, riverfront and low-lying parcels can fall within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area tied to the river corridor.
It includes the building’s location, its FEMA flood zone, and surveyed elevations of the lowest floor, mechanical equipment, and grade compared against the Base Flood Elevation.
They are recorded through the Winnebago County Recorder, located in the county seat of Rockford.
