We recently learned that our members and business partners may have received an email notifying them that the hotel block for our Annual Conference & Exhibit is open. This is NOT the League’s hotel room block. The League’s Annual Conference & Exhibit room block information will be sent AFTER you register for the conference and the link will be sent from League staff.

Iowa Municipal
Attorneys Association

The Iowa Municipal Attorneys Association was formed June 30, 1960 by 30 municipal attorneys attending the annual meeting of the Iowa State Bar Association in Sioux City. According to its first president, Robert J. Spayde, city corporation counsel of Des Moines, the purpose of the association was “to keep municipal attorneys in Iowa informed of current laws affecting Iowa municipalities, to hold workshops to discuss mutual municipal legal problems, and to participate in major court cases involving general municipal laws.”

After 50 years of service the Iowa Municipal Attorneys Association continues to strive to enhance the professional development of and promote information exchange among municipal attorneys in Iowa.​
