Phoenix is a small south-suburban village of roughly 1,700 residents within Thornton Township, near the Little Calumet River. Its older lots and low-lying setting make a plat of survey useful for pairing boundary work with flood-hazard review.
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.
Phoenix, with about 1,700 residents in Thornton Township, sits in the south suburbs of Cook County near the Calumet river system. Its plats of survey and deeds are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which consolidated the former Recorder of Deeds functions in December 2020. The village’s older lots carry decades of fence, garage, and addition work that can drift from the recorded plat, so a survey often clarifies lines and easements before permits or sales. Because the area is low-lying within the Calumet drainage, parcels near the waterways should be reviewed against FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas in the MWRD-managed watershed.
Official resources for Phoenix property owners
Low-lying parcels near the waterways can fall in FEMA flood-hazard areas, and a survey paired with that mapping clarifies flood exposure for building and insurance.
Typical reasons are a sale, a fence or addition permit, or a boundary question with a neighbor.
It is recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division in Chicago.
