IMLA has secured a block of sleeping rooms and a special room rate at La Quinta Resort & Club, a first class facility, in La Quinta, CA.
In order to secure this block of specially priced sleeping rooms and to keep meeting costs to a minimum, IMLA has entered into a total meeting package and contract with the hotels. If you choose to make your sleeping room reservations outside the IMLA group block, such as through an Internet reservation system or with a discount coupon, we need to advise you that IMLA can suffer significant financial penalties. IMLA can be held financially responsible for the attrition or difference between what was promised in the group block and what was actually utilized.
To allow IMLA to continue to provide a reasonable conference registration fee, we need your help in limiting our financial exposure. Please take advantage of the special room rate and block of sleeping rooms we have negotiated and make your reservation.
If you have any questions, please contact us.

“Start your engines, we have an adrenaline rush waiting for you’re the afternoon of Sept 30th (Saturday). You will get to play in vehicles and not just any vehicles you will be racing against the clock at the BMW Performance Center on their trackside autocross. Trust me, this facility is going to drive you to be a better driver with finesse. If you think your life is the Rat Race, well we have a new definition for you; our Rat Race is on a polished circular concrete, slicked down with water and with DSC off! You will be testing your handling skills on our very own professional skid pad that will feel like an ice-skating rink. Just when you think you have the hang of it you will realize you are racing against your opponent. Another fun activity will be comparing our 5 top BMW Models on the lot. We will let you decide which one you think handles the best. Just when you think you cannot have any more fun, we will end the day with Professional Hotlaps. This will be the only time you won’t be behind the wheel; we will let the professional instructors show you how the car could be really driven. I guarantee you will be talking about this event for years to come. Dress comfortable, wear your best enclosed toed sneakers and prepare to have a lot of fun.

The presenters were great and the technology/platform used for the virtual conference was good, sound was good. Excellent overall.
Outstanding work coordinating the presentations and speakers from across the US, Europe, and North America.
This was my first IMLA Conference and I was impressed by the variety and quality of the session offerings. It was also really exciting to meet other municipal attorneys from across the country.
Programming was current and extremely relevant to my practice.
My practice is pretty narrow , but I was able to find a lot of material of interest and benefit.
Every presenter/speaker I watched was engaged and knowledgeable. They put in solid preparation work, and it showed.
IMLA is the one organization that keeps me abreast of what is happening around the country and may be headed my way. It is because of IMLA that I am able to, at times, be proactive rather than just reactive.
