Cape May Point Welcomes You

On behalf of the Commissioners and employees of the Borough of Cape May Point, NJ, we would like to welcome you to Cape May Point's official website.  This site is for our Cape May Point "family" of property owners and the general public to understand the function of our municipal government, its departments and the services that they offer.  While some information on the site is mandated by state statute, most of what you will find is our way of bringing everyone into the world of Cape May Point in order to make their experience here more enjoyable and understandable.  We encourage you to use this site on a regular basis so that you are continually informed of what is happening in our local government. Should you have any questions, please direct them to the appropriate Commissioner. You will find links on the Mayor and Commissioners pages where you can click on a link to send an email directly to them.

If you have any trouble with accessing information contained within this website, please contact Elaine Wallace at ewallace@capemaypoint.org or (609) 884-8468 ext. 12.

 

Please be advised that the new Water and Sewer Ordinance is now in effect. For a summary of the new rates and billing schedule, please see the Water & Sewer page of the Borough website. The complete details of the new ordinance can be seen here. The changes in rates and billing schedule were made to meet the fiscal obligations of the Water and Sewer Utility.

20210520 MMP MilkweedAn important component of the newly signed Mayors' Monarch Pledge is planting milkweed in our community.  This is critical since milkweed serves as the only "host" plant for Monarch caterpillars.  Without milkweed there would be no Monarch butterflies!

The Environmental Commission invites Cape May Point residents to be a part of the work of the Mayors' Monarch Pledge by adding milkweed to your garden.  Any homeowner who wishes to receive FREE Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is encouraged to pick up your complimentary plant at the Public Works Maintenance building on Lighthouse Avenue.  

The plants will be given away on a first-come-first-serve basis.  If any of the 150 plants are leftover, they will be planted in Pavilion Circle Gardens, thanks to Bedfellows who have offered space in their bed at the Circle.

We thank you for your continued commitment to help reverse the dramatic decline of Monarch butterflies.
