The City Attorneys Association of Kansas (CAAK) is an affiliated association under the League of Kansas Municipalities, an instrumentality of its member cities, whose purpose includes providing city attorneys the opportunity to study, learn about, and exchange ideas with other persons associated with municipal law.
The CAAK desires to strengthen the quality of legal representation of cities through continuing legal education and the sharing of information among members. Participation and assistance in advocacy before courts regarding issues impacting municipalities and municipal law is another area of importance for the CAAK. Annual dues shall be paid by each regular and associate member on or before January 1 of each year.
