Join us for the September BizMix hosted by MODERN.
Guest enjoy casual networking, complimentary hors d'oeuvres and beverages, and an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the host business.
BizMix brings together area professionals and is hosted by a different member business each month. This event provides EA members with increased opportunity for participation and connections. The event will run from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
If you'd like to save the event to your calendar, a calendar invite will be sent in the post-registration email. Registration is not required.
This event is for members of the Cedar Rapids Metro Economic Alliance and the Marion Chamber of Commerce. If you're interested in becoming a member, contact our Partnership Manager, David Miller at dmiller@cedarrapids.org.
Landlords of Linn County will not be hosting an October Meeting so members can attend the State Landlords Convention. Active members who attend the convention will be refunded half of the registration fee by submitting proof of attendance to the Landlords of Linn County.
Member Update:
Disassociation from Landlords of Iowa
The Board of Directors of the Landlords of Linn County has unanimously voted to disassociate from the Landlords of Iowa. This decision was made after careful evaluation of member value and organizational alignment.
The Board determined that the cost of affiliation exceeded half of the annual membership fees without clear evidence of sufficient benefit or responsible stewardship. Protecting member value remains a top priority, and this change reflects that commitment.
What This Means for Members
While the formal relationship has ended, the organization remains committed to supporting effective state-level advocacy for landlords. Leadership is actively exploring alternative partnerships and strategies to ensure members continue to have a voice in legislative matters.
Non-members may still attend state conventions, and individuals who wish to remain connected to the Landlords of Iowa may continue to do so independently.
