Melrose Park is a densely built west-suburban village of roughly 24,800 residents, spanning Proviso and Leyden townships. With older industrial and residential lots side by side, a plat of survey is often essential for sorting out where boundaries and easements actually lie.
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.
Melrose Park, with about 24,800 residents across Proviso and Leyden townships, sits in the near-west suburbs of Cook County. Its plats of survey and deeds are recorded at the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, the office that took over the Recorder of Deeds role in December 2020. The village’s older, closely built lots have long histories of fences, garages, and additions, so a survey frequently clarifies encroachments and easements that an aging plat may not reflect. Owners order one before fence and addition permits, sales, and boundary disputes. Given the village’s location within the Des Plaines River watershed, low-lying parcels should be reviewed against FEMA flood-hazard mapping in the MWRD-managed system.

An addition is reviewed against setbacks, so a current plat of survey is typically required to show it fits within the lot lines.
