CAPE MAY, NJ April 3, 2022 — In recognition of the
importance of education in our community, beginning
this year the TPA is instituting an annual
scholarship for a graduating senior residing in the
City of Cape May.
This $1,000 scholarship will be based on Cape May
City residency, community service, high school
academic performance and financial need. The
recipient will be selected by the Board of Directors
of the CMTPA.
To be eligible a student must have attended Lower
Cape May Regional, Wildwood Catholic High School, or
any other accredited secondary school for a minimum
of two years and be a full- time / year-round
resident of the City of Cape May or the United
States Coast Guard Base Cape May.
To qualify for this $1,000 annual scholarship the
recipient must be enrolled as a full-time degree
pursuit student at an accredited college or
technical school. A full course load must be
scheduled for the entire first year. The
scholarship will be paid directly to the student
prior to the fall 2022 enrollment year.
Applications have been distributed to Guidance
Offices of all accredited secondary schools.
The Guidance Office will forward all applications to
the Taxpayers Association by WEDNESDAY APRIL 20,
2022. No application will be accepted after

CAPE MAY, NJ Aug 26, 2020 — The Taxpayer Association
of Cape May Board of Directors will hold a Special
Executive Meeting in a distanced, sanitized space at
The Chalfont Hotel on September on Thursday
September 3. This meeting will not be opened to the
public.
Covid has greatly diminished our ability to meet
with our membership in person. Under compliance with
the Governor's declarations, large public gatherings
are prohibited, our normal meeting places are closed
to the public, and our technological capabilities
are not sufficient to offer virtual meetings at this
time.
While public attendance will not be permitted at
this meeting, we urge all members to send any and
all concerns or question they may have to us at our
email,
2020CMTPA@gmail.com. All emails received
will be read and discussed at this Special Executive
Meeting.
At this meeting the Board will consider options for
scheduling our Annual Meeting as required by Article
X of our Bylaws.
 The advisability of holding our traditional
Candidate Night sponsored by the TPA and the League
of Women Voters, and several pending issues and
reports postponed by the cancellation of our August
Meeting will also be discussed. Minutes will
be posted on our website in the near future.
The Appellate Division of the state Superior
Court ruled in Cape May’s favor July 15, in
litigation tied to a 2014 bar brawl.
