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
