Seneca is a LaSalle County village on the Illinois River, historically a grain-port and shipbuilding town. Subdivision work here ranges from infill on established streets to lots opened along the community’s growing edges. A plat of subdivision is the recordable document that defines those parcels.

Seneca & LaSalle County specifics

Seneca has about 2,353 residents and lies in Manlius Township, with portions of the community reaching into Grundy County townships. For land within LaSalle County, an approved plat is recorded with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa, the county seat. Because the village fronts the Illinois River, floodplain mapping can affect how lots, drainage and easements are laid out and reviewed under the subdivision and zoning ordinance. Pi Surveying prepares the survey and the plat so the recording matches the approved layout.

What Seneca-area clients say

I've used Pi Surveying a few times (once in the sale of my home and another in the purchase of my current home) and have to say I'm extremely satisfied with the service they provided. They were extremely detail oriented, experienced, and delivered an exceptional survey with very little effort on my part! From first call to job completion, they were always available and very communicative. Will definitely be calling them if I need them again!

This service is superb! I needed a survey done quickly. I had a deadline and I was out of options. Someone referred me to Pi Surveying and they were so easy to work with. They were competitively priced, quick to get the job done and reliable. Their customer service is top notch! I highly recommend!

Pi Surveying delivered exactly what we needed, on time and without any hassle. From the initial call to receiving our final survey documents, the process was smooth and straightforward. You can tell this team knows what they're doing — over 40 years of combined experience really shows in the quality and accuracy of their work. Highly recommend to anyone in the Chicagoland area!

We were very happy with the services provided by Pi Surveying. They came out quickly for a survey that I needed to get in order to put up a fence on our property. We were in a rush because the HOA would start fining us if we didn't get it done before the end of the month. They were awesome! Very highly recommend this company.

Pi Surveying helped me in the process of buying my commercial building. As a first time buyer, they were very helpful and efficient in taking care of the surveying part. My point of contact was very responsive and I would definitely recommend them and use them again. Great overall experience.

My wife and I were pleased with the Land Surveying services that Pi Surveying provided. The surveyor took the time to explain everything on the survey and what our property boundaries looked like legally. They were professional, courteous and efficient throughout the entire process. We highly recommend them!

Found myself in a bind after discovering some issues with a property. My real estate attorney pointed me towards Pi and I will do the same for anyone else! They were able to get me taken care of when I was in a time crunch, and didn't rake me over the coals with pricing. Standup company, honest, and have earned my business for life. Thanks guys!

Frequently asked questions

Seneca spans two counties — where is a plat recorded?

It depends on where the subdivided land sits. Ground on the LaSalle County side records with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa; a parcel in Grundy County records in Morris instead.

Does the river corridor affect a Seneca subdivision?

It can. Parcels near the Illinois River may lie in mapped flood hazard areas, which influences lot placement, drainage and easements on the plat.

What must happen before the plat is recorded?

The layout is reviewed under the applicable subdivision and zoning ordinance, and only the approved, surveyed plat is recorded with the county.
