Stickney is a compact inner-suburban village of roughly 7,100 residents, coextensive with Stickney Township just southwest of Chicago. On its dense, older lots, a plat of survey is often the deciding document for setbacks, fences, and additions.
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.
Stickney, home to about 7,100 residents within its own Stickney Township, borders Chicago’s southwest side. Its plats of survey and deeds are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which replaced the Recorder of Deeds office in December 2020. Because lots here are older and closely spaced, a survey commonly reveals a fence, garage, or addition sitting near or across a recorded line, which matters for permits and sales. Additions trigger setback review that a current survey supports, and low-lying parcels near area drainage should be checked against FEMA flood-hazard mapping in the MWRD system.

On closely spaced lots, a small difference in a fence or structure can affect a permit or sale, and a current plat of survey shows those exact relationships.
Common reasons include a sale, a fence or addition permit, or a boundary question with a neighbor.
They are recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, the county’s recording office since late 2020.
