Cape May Point is governed under The Walsh Act, enacted in 1911, which requires commissioners be elected at-large in nonpartisan elections and serve four-year, concurrent terms of office. At the reorganization meeting, the Mayor is chosen by the three Commissioners and each Commissioner is assigned a department as defined by the Act. In three-member Commissions like Cape May Point, the departments are: Public Affairs and Public Safety; Revenue and Finance; and Public Works, Parks and Public Property.
The Commissioners have all Executive, Administrative, Judicial, and Legislative powers over their respective departments. As a group, the Commissioners have complete control over all affairs of the municipality. Mayoral duties include chairing municipal meetings and general oversight of community affairs. Our currently serving officials and their departments are shown below.
Borough Meetings are held at 6:00 P.M. the second Thursday of each month in the Firehall on Yale Avenue.*
Work Sessions are held the fourth Tuesday each month (unless otherwise noted on the schedule) at 12:00 P.M. in the Municipal Building on Lighthouse Avenue.*
* All meetings are being held via ZOOM until further notice.
