HomeServicesPlat of Subdivision › Marengo, IL

Marengo lies in western McHenry County near the Kishwaukee watershed, a small city whose farmland surroundings have supported gradual residential growth. Splitting a parcel into buildable lots there is accomplished with a plat of subdivision that defines lots, blocks, streets, and easements to city standards. Pi Surveying PLLC prepares recordable subdivision plats for owners and developers subdividing property in Marengo.

Marengo & McHenry County specifics

Marengo has about 7,600 residents and spans Marengo and Riley townships in McHenry County. A plat of subdivision is reviewed under the city’s subdivision and zoning ordinances and, once approved, recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock, the county seat. Because the western part of the county drains toward the Kishwaukee River, FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas can influence lot layout and easement placement. A licensed Illinois Professional Land Surveyor prepares the plat so its lots, easements, and dedications hold up at recording.

What Marengo-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Marengo is in McHenry County, so an approved plat is recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock, the county seat.

It can. Land in the watershed may fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas that limit buildable area and require drainage easements on the plat.

The city’s subdivision and zoning ordinances set lot sizes, street standards, and required dedications that the plat must meet before approval.
