Spring Grove lies in far northern McHenry County near the upper Fox River and the edge of the Chain O’Lakes, so low-lying parcels toward those waters carry FEMA flood exposure. Much of the village sits on higher rolling terrain. A surveyed elevation is what separates a low waterside lot from one safely above the flood level.
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.

Spring Grove, with roughly 5,487 residents, is centered in Burton Township with reach into Richmond Township, within McHenry County. It sits near the upper Fox River and the Chain O’Lakes area, and FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas here follow those water corridors, with county preliminary FIRMs released in 2024. A FEMA Elevation Certificate, prepared by a licensed Illinois surveyor, documents a building’s lowest floor against the Base Flood Elevation so insurers can rate flood coverage, the village can confirm floodplain-permit compliance, and owners can pursue a Letter of Map Amendment. Deeds for Spring Grove parcels are recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in the county seat of Woodstock.
