Northlake is a west-suburban city of roughly 12,800 residents, spanning Proviso and Leyden townships. With a compact mix of residential and industrial parcels, a plat of survey is often key to establishing exactly where boundaries and easements run.
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.
Northlake, home to about 12,800 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, which took over the Recorder of Deeds functions in December 2020. The city’s older, closely built lots carry decades of fence, garage, and addition work, so a survey frequently clarifies encroachments and easements that an aging plat may not reflect. Owners order surveys before fence and addition permits, sales, and boundary disputes, and low-lying parcels near area drainage should be reviewed against FEMA flood-hazard mapping in the MWRD-managed watershed.

It catches fences, garages, and additions that encroach on a line or an easement, which matters for permits, sales, and disputes.
Fence and addition permits generally rely on a current plat of survey so lines and easements are documented before work begins.
They are recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division in Chicago.
