Tracking annexations using GIS

Land annexed into the Village of Glenview has been on display in the Village’s Development department for some time. This information and map serves as a reference for staff when receiving questions about unincorporated and\or incorporated properties. Staff realized that the information and map was out date and that GIS (Geographic Information System) could provide an opportunity to keep the information current and more up to date.

The new process is that the existing annexation information provided by the Village’s record management software is given to the GIS staff for updating the current map. When completed a new updated hard copy is provided to the Development department for display and a PDF is created for distrabution to the staff and public.
