Arlington Heights is one of the larger northwest suburbs, a mature community of established neighborhoods, a walkable downtown, and long-standing commercial districts. New land to subdivide is limited, so most plats of subdivision here support infill lot splits, teardown-and-rebuild sites, or the redevelopment of an older commercial parcel into a new mixed layout. Sweeping new subdivisions of open ground are uncommon in a village this fully developed.
A plat of subdivision divides a parcel into lots, blocks, streets and easements in compliance with the municipality’s subdivision and zoning ordinances, then is recorded with the county. It is the foundation of any residential or commercial development.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
With nearly 78,000 residents spread across the Wheeling, Elk Grove, and Palatine townships, Arlington Heights sits in northwest Cook County. Given how little unbuilt land remains, subdivision work typically means dividing a deep residential lot, assembling and re-platting a redevelopment site, or adjusting easements on an existing tract. Any such plat of subdivision must meet the village’s subdivision regulations and zoning code before the municipality will sign off. The approved plat is then recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, the office that took over the county Recorder of Deeds function in December 2020. Recording gives each new lot a legal description for sale, financing, and permitting.

Generally yes. Dividing one parcel into two or more separately buildable lots in Arlington Heights is done through a plat of subdivision reviewed under the village’s ordinances and then recorded with the county.
It creates new, individually described lots along with any required blocks, streets, and easements, all drawn to comply with local ordinances so the pieces can be permitted and conveyed on their own.
It is recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which absorbed the Recorder of Deeds in December 2020 and maintains the county land records.
