Ransom & LaSalle County specifics

The village of Ransom, home to about 300 residents in Allen Township, lies in the flat farm country of eastern LaSalle County. With little natural relief, drainage on the surrounding parcels depends on the detailed elevation information a topographic survey provides. Land records for Ransom are recorded with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa, the LaSalle County seat. For new construction, additions or agricultural and site grading, a topographic survey documenting existing grades, features and drainage gives engineers the accurate base needed to plan how water moves across and off the property.
