History
The Illinois Township Attorneys Association (the “Association”) was incorporated on
December 20, 1977, with the Secretary of State of the State of Illinois. In the time prior to
incorporation of the Association, various members of the Association coordinated their efforts
as an ad hoc division of the Township Officials of Illinois (“TOI”), which exists under Illinois
statutory law to “provide and disseminate information and research services and perform other
acts for the purpose of improving township government in Illinois”. 60 ILCS 1/85-15.
Before and after incorporation of the Association, members of the Association have volunteered
countless hours to lecture township officials throughout Illinois. Members of the Association
have also provided countless hours on a pro bono (free of charge) basis to townships and
township-inspired causes throughout Illinois.
In 1990, the Association sponsored its first continuing legal education seminar for attorneys in
Bloomington, Illinois, with focus on the law effecting townships and township road districts in
Illinois. The Association sponsored twelve more such seminars.
In 2001, the Association sponsored its first educational program for township officials in
Bloomington, Illinois, with focus on the laws which effect township and township road
districts. The Association sponsored another such program in 2002 at Hamburger University in
Oak Brook, Illinois.
In 2003, the Association combined its educational offerings for attorneys and township officials
and sponsored its First Annual Combined Spring Educational Seminar at the former Radisson
Hotel in Bloomington, Illinois. Since then, the Association has continued to sponsor such
seminars typically on the first Friday of each May.
Periodically, the Association has published a newsletter which also focuses on issues pertaining
to township and township road districts.
Mission
The Mission of the Illinois Township Attorneys Association is to provide service to township
government in Illinois through the education of and assistance to the attorneys and officials
who serve township government in Illinois.
