Stone Park sits in Proviso Township west of Chicago near the Des Plaines River corridor, where lower-lying land can fall inside mapped flood zones in an otherwise compact, built-up village. A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents a building’s floor elevation against the Base Flood Elevation for flood-insurance rating and permit compliance.
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.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Stone Park is a small, densely developed west-suburban village of about 4,600 residents within Proviso Township, Cook County. Its drainage runs toward the Des Plaines River system managed by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD). Because the village is compact and largely built out, mapped Special Flood Hazard Areas are limited and concentrate in lower-lying areas near the river corridor rather than across the community. Where a structure does sit in a mapped zone, the certificate provides the surveyed elevations an insurer uses to rate coverage, documents floodplain-permit compliance for construction, and forms the basis of a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) when a building is documented above the flood elevation.
Official resources for Stone Park property owners
Mapped flood exposure is limited given the village’s compact, built-out character, concentrating in lower-lying areas nearer the Des Plaines River corridor.
If a flood-zone determination places your structure in a mapped zone, the lender may require flood insurance, and the certificate provides the data to rate it accurately.
It records the lowest floor elevation, reference-point elevations, and the Base Flood Elevation, tied to a vertical datum and certified by a surveyor.
