The LaMotte Telephone Company became incorporated in 1953. In September of 1960, Paul Konrardy was hired as the company's first full time manager and maintenance man. In 1962, the company purchased the Zwingle Telephone Company which added approximately another 80 subscribers to the base. Later in 1968, a new switchboard office and garage was built, and a 600 line Automatic Electric switchboard was installed. Toll free dialing to Dubuque was also established at that time. In 2005, a new Coppercom Telecom digital switch was placed in service which gives the LaMotte subscribers the most up to date, state of the art service that is available.

In the year 2000, the company built a 190' PCS tower in Bellevue, IA which provides cellular PCS service throughout the LaMotte and Bellevue exchange areas. Wireless internet service to Bellevue is also provided from this tower.
