SPECIAL MEETING OF PARTICIPANTS
________________
GENERAL INFORMATION
We are providing you with this Proxy Statement in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of Iowa Public Agency Investment Trust, an Iowa common law trust organized under Chapter 28E of the Iowa Code ("IPAIT"), for use at the Meeting of Participants to be held at the Iowa Association of Municipal Utilities, 1735 NE 70th Avenue, Ankeny, Iowa on August 25, 2010, at 8:30 am local time, and at any and all postponements or adjournments thereof (the "Meeting"). This proxy statement, the accompanying form of proxy, and the Notice of Special Meeting will be first mailed or given to Participants on or about July 27, 2010.
Because many of the authorized representatives of IPAIT's Participants may be unable to attend the Meeting in person, the Board of Trustees is soliciting proxies to give each Participant an opportunity to vote on all matters presented at the Meeting. Authorized representatives of the Participants are urged to:
| (1) read this Proxy Statement carefully; |
(2) specify their choice in each matter by marking the appropriate box on the enclosed Proxy,
(3) sign, date and return the Proxy by mail in the return envelope provided, or
| (4) fax the Proxy toll-free to fax number 866-260-0246. |
If the accompanying proxy is executed properly by an authorized official of a Participant and returned, the Participants so voting will be deemed to have voted their Units at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions given. The Board of Trustees of IPAIT recommends a vote FOR all proposals. If no instructions are given, the Participant's Units will be voted FOR the approval of all proposals and any other business as may properly come before the Meeting.
IPAIT'S ANNUAL AND SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN DELIVERED TO PARTICIPANTS OF IPAIT. SUCH REPORTS ARE AVAILABLE AT NO COST BY CALLING TOLL-FREE AT 800-872-4024, VIEWING ONLINE AT WWW.IPAIT.ORG, OR WRITING TO IPAIT IN CARE OF MILES CAPITAL, AT 1415 28TH STREET, SUITE 200, WEST DES MOINES, IOWA 50266-1461.
YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. Please take a moment now to sign, date and return the accompanying proxy card in the enclosed return envelope. Returning your proxy card will not prevent you from voting in person, but will assure that your vote will be counted if you are unable to attend the meeting, and will avoid the additional expense of further proxy solicitation and will ensure that a quorum is represented at the meeting.
QUESTION AND ANSWER SUMMARY: ABOUT THE VOTE
WHAT IS BEING VOTED ON AT THE MEETING?
As more fully described in this proxy statement, the Board of Trustees of IPAIT is asking participants to consider and vote on the following proposals:
| 1. | Election of three Trustees |
| 2. | Ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as IPAIT's auditors |
WHO CAN VOTE AT THE MEETING?
The Board of Trustees has set July 27, 2010 as the record date for the Meeting. Only Participants at the close of business on the record date which have positive account balances in either the Diversified Portfolio and or the Direct Government Obligation Portfolio (the "Portfolios") will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Each Participant will be entitled to one vote per unit of beneficial ownership ("Unit") held in both Portfolios on each matter properly submitted for vote at the Meeting. Participants of both Portfolios vote together on the Election of Trustees and the ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A QUORUM FOR THE MEETING?
Quorum for the Meeting is based on the number Units outstanding held by Participants that are represented in person or by proxy. To have a quorum we need a majority of the Units of the combined Diversified Portfolio and the Direct Government Obligation Portfolio to be present, in person or by proxy. Proxies received will be considered present at the Meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum for the transaction of business at the meeting. The vote with respect to each proposal will be tabulated separately.
If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or if a quorum is present at the Meeting, but sufficient votes to approve a proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to a proposal. In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered: the nature of a proposal, the percentage of votes cast, the percentage of negative votes cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the information to be provided to Unit holders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of participants represented in person or by proxy at the Meeting. In that case, the persons named as proxies will vote all proxies required to be voted for a proposal, FOR such an adjournment; provided, however, any proxies required to be voted against a proposal will be voted AGAINST such adjournment.
HOW TO VOTE?
If an authorized representative of each Participant completes and properly signs the accompanying proxy card and return it to us, it will be voted as they direct, unless they later revoke the proxy. Unless instructions to the contrary are marked, or if no instructions are specified, Participants represented by a proxy will be voted FOR the proposals set forth on the proxy, and in the discretion of the persons named as proxies on such other matters as may properly come before the Meeting. If you do not complete a proxy card and return it to us or vote at the meeting, you will be treated as if you voted AGAINST a proposal. If you check the box labeled ABSTAIN on the proxy card and return it to us, you will be treated as if you voted AGAINST a proposal.
If you attend the Meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card or vote in person. You may either mail the proxy card to us in the envelope provided or you fax the signed proxy card toll-free to us at 866-260-0246.
CAN THE VOTE BE CHANGED AFTER RETURN OF THE PROXY CARD?
Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by filing with our Secretary, at the address indicated above, either a written notice of revocation, a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or if you vote in person at the Meeting. The powers of the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the Meeting in person and so request. However, attendance at the Meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy.
Any written notice of revocation sent to us must include the Participant's name and must be received prior to the Meeting to be effective.
WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSALS?
Election of Trustees requires as to each Trustee, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the combined Units of the Direct Government Obligation Portfolio and the Diversified Portfolio voting at the meeting. This means that the trustee nominee with the most affirmative votes for a particular slot is elected for that slot. Abstentions will not count as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. The nominees for this election are unopposed and are each incumbent.
The ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as IPAIT's auditors requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined outstanding Units of the Portfolios voting at the meeting.
Each change in the investment policy requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined outstanding Units of the Portfolios voting at the meeting.
Abstentions are counted in tabulations of the votes cast on proposals presented to participants. Therefore, for all matters presented at the Meeting, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against the proposals.
PROPOSAL 1.
ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
The Board is currently comprised of nine persons who are representative of the three types of Iowa public agencies that have historically participated in IPAIT - the Iowa League of Cities (ILC), the Iowa Association of Municipal Utilities (IAMU), and the Iowa State Association of Counties (ISAC) (collectively the "Associations") with each group having three representatives. The qualifications for the Trustees require that the person be an "official" and employee with an Iowa public agency. In the future, the Board will continue this structure in filling vacancies. To the extent that a vacancy occurs, the Board will seek and nominate persons to fill the vacancy with a person associated with the group meeting the qualifications for the vacancy. Each Trustee serves a three-year term and three Trustees are reappointed or elected each year (one from each group).
Craig Hall, Dianne Kiefer and Brent Hinson are the three nominees for election as Trustees. Their terms each expire in 2010 (except Hinson, who is a new nominee). If elected they will serve three years terms. Information about all Trustees, including the nominees is provided below. Craig Hall has served on the IPAIT Board since 2004, and is currently Vice Chair of the Board. Dianne Kiefer has served on the IPAIT Board since 2000, and currently serves as the Chair of the Board. Brent Hinson has served the City of Garner as City Administrator since 2005. The IPAIT Board includes trustees who are experienced public servants who share their experience in managing public funds for the benefit of the public agency participants of IPAIT.
The year that the term for each Trustee will end is specified in the table. All three nominees and all other Trustees are non-interested and independent. Each of the nominees and the other Trustees listed below has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and each of the three nominees has indicated a willingness to serve as a Trustee if elected. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holder will vote the proxies received for the election of the persons listed below. It is not expected that any of the nominees will decline or become unavailable for election, but in case this should happen, the proxy holders reserve the right to select and substitute another person as a Trustee nominee.

The Board of Trustees does not include any person who is deemed to be an "interested person" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act").
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Company's Board of Trustees held FOUR meetings. ALL INCUMBENT TRUSTEES OF THE IPAIT ATTENDED AT LEAST 75 PERCENT OF THE AGGREGATE OF (I) THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (HELD DURING THE PERIOD FOR WHICH HE OR SHE WAS A TRUSTEE) AND (II) THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MEETINGS HELD BY ALL COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD ON WHICH HE OR SHE SERVED EXCEPT WAYNE NORTHEY WHO ATTENDED 50% OF THE MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
The Board of Trustees has an Executive Committee comprised of the Chairman, the Vice Chairman, the Second Vice Chairman, the Treasurer, and the Secretary. In the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010, the Executive Committee met twice. The Executive Committee discusses the audit report with the auditor and also reviews the contract with the auditor, and the proposals for audit services. The full board then discusses the committee’s recommendations. There is no Audit Committee. The full Board of Trustees considers and approves the engagement of the independent auditors.
There is no Nominating Committee, as the full Board of Trustees reviews and recommends candidates for election to fill vacancies on the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees will consider written recommendations from the Sponsoring Associations and directly from Participants for possible nominees. Participants should submit their recommendations to the Secretary.
The structure of the Board of Trustees and its committees has been essentially the same since IPAIT was organized in 1987 and has proven to be an effective and efficient means of oversight of the business and risks of IPAIT. The Board meets quarterly and as part of its regular agenda receives and reviews reports from the Chief Compliance Officer, the Adviser and the Custodian concerning its investments and operations. As the Board is comprised of persons who have been public servants in management positions with various public agencies for many years, they all have years of experience in dealing with the management of public funds. They are also not interested persons and as a result the Board operates with complete independence from the Adviser and its other service providers.
As of the Record Date, none of the Trustees owned of record or beneficially any Units of either of IPAIT's Portfolios as none are legally permitted to invest in IPAIT. Only public agencies in the State of Iowa are permitted to participate in IPAIT.
The Trustees receive no compensation for serving on the Board of Trustees, except reimbursement for mileage and lodging in attending meetings. IPAIT has no pension or retirement plans for its Trustees.
A Participant may nominate an individual for election to the Board of Trustees at the Special Meeting of Participants if the Participant: (1) is a Participant of record at the time of giving notice of its intent to nominate a candidate; (2) is a Participant of record at the time of the Special Meeting; (3) is entitled to vote at the Special Meeting; and (4) has given written notice of the nomination to the Secretary of the IPAIT no earlier than July 27, 2010 and no later than August 20, 2010. The notice must contain all information relating to the nominee required for proxy solicitations by Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including the individual's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a trustee if elected). The notice must also contain the Participant's name and address as they appear on IPAIT books, the number of Units owned of record by such Participant and the "slot" for which the person in nominated for election.
PROPOSAL 2.
RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF AUDITORS
At the meeting of the Board of Trustees held on August 26, 2009, KPMG LLP was selected by the Trustees as the independent auditors for the 2009/2010 fiscal year. The Board of Trustees seeks your ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as IPAIT's independent auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30,
2010.
IPAIT has been advised by its independent accountants that they have no direct or material indirect financial interest in IPAIT. Representatives of KPMG LLP are not expected to be present at the Meeting but will be available by
telephone to respond to any questions.

The Tax Fees included those specific charges billed by KPMG LLP and paid by IPAIT relating to the preparation and filing of all tax returns for IPAIT during the fiscal years indicated. KPMG LLP does not provide non-audit services to Miles Capital.
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECOMMENDS THAT PARTICPANTS VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF KPMG LLP AS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS OF IPAIT.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES
This solicitation is being made by mail on behalf of the Board of Trustees of IPAIT, but may also be made without additional remuneration by officers or employees of the Adviser by telephone, telegraph, facsimile transmission, electronic mail or personal interview. The expense of the printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of Proxy and Notice of Special Meeting, and any additional material relating to the Meeting, which may be furnished to Participants by the Board subsequent to the furnishing of this Proxy Statement, has been or will be borne by the Administrator. To obtain the necessary representation of Participants at the Meeting, supplementary solicitations may be made by mail, electronic mail, telephone or interview by officers of IPAIT or employees of the Adviser. It is anticipated that the cost of any other supplementary solicitations, if any, will not be material.
PARTICIPANT PROPOSALS FOR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING
Annual meetings of Participants are not required to be held unless they are necessary under the 1940 Act. Therefore, although the Board of Trustees has determined to hold a special meeting this year IPAIT may not hold Participant meetings on an annual basis. A Participant proposal intended to be presented at any meeting hereafter called must be received at IPAIT's offices a reasonable time before IPAIT begins to print and mail its proxy materials for that meeting, in order to be considered for inclusion in IPAIT's proxy statement and form of proxy relating to such meeting. If a Participant fails to submit the proposal by such date, IPAIT will not be required to provide any information about the nature of the proposal in its proxy statement, and the proposal will not be considered at that next annual meeting of Participants.
Proposals should be sent to Robert Haug, IPAIT, Secretary, at 1735 NE 70th Avenue, Ankeny, Iowa 50021. The submission by a Participant of a proposal for inclusion in a proxy statement does not guarantee that it will be included. Participant proposals are subject to certain regulations under the federal securities laws.
OTHER MATTERS
The Board is not aware of any matters to come before the Meeting, other than the proposals specified in the Notice of Special Meeting. However, if any other matter requiring a vote of the Participants should arise at the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying Proxy to vote such Proxy in accordance with their best judgment.
