Berkeley is a small western inner-ring village of modest homes and light-industrial parcels near the Proviso corridor. Additions and redevelopment here begin with a topographic survey to capture existing grades on built-up land. The elevation data guides drainage across a generally flat community.
A topographic survey maps the elevations, contours and natural and man-made features of a site — grades, structures, utilities, trees and drainage — giving architects and engineers the data they need to design accurately and secure permits.

Berkeley is home to roughly 5,000 residents and is coextensive with a portion of Proviso Township in western Cook County. Its deeds are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The village is flat and drains toward the Des Plaines River system and Salt Creek area, so grading design must move runoff carefully across level ground. A topographic survey documenting existing elevations, structures and drainage on a Berkeley parcel gives the design team what it needs to plan grading and building placement for additions or redevelopment.
Official resources for Berkeley property owners
On Berkeley’s flat, built-up parcels, small elevation differences control drainage, and a topographic survey supplies the grades engineers use to design grading that works.
It records elevations and contours plus buildings, pavement, trees and surface drainage, delivered in CAD.
No; a boundary survey defines property lines and a topographic survey maps elevations and features, and both are commonly ordered together.
