Harvard is a small city in northwestern McHenry County near the Wisconsin state line, surrounded by farmland and known for its dairy heritage. Its rural setting means larger agricultural tracts are common alongside the city’s residential lots. A plat of survey provides the documented boundaries owners need across both acreage and platted parcels.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Harvard has roughly 9,500 residents and sits within Chemung Township, also touching the Dunham and Alden townships in northwestern McHenry County. Plats and deeds for the city are recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock to the southeast. Being in the county’s northwest, the area drains toward the Kishwaukee watershed, so low-lying and creek-adjacent parcels should be checked against FEMA mapping, with preliminary county maps released in 2024. Given the surrounding farmland, plats of survey here address acreage boundaries and easements as well as the usual permit and closing work within the city.
