Overview of WOTCA
Association
Wildwood
Ocean Towers Condominium Association (WOTCA) is an incorporated condominium association
governed by a volunteer (7) seven-member Board of Directors elected by the owners.
Officers include a President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer (who may
or may not be a Director). The firm of Lowenstein Sandler PC of Roseland, NJ currently
provides legal counsel to the association. Please

staff.
The Board of Directors directs the operation of Wildwood Ocean
Towers through a management staff employed by WOTCA. This staff manages the day
to day operations of Wildwood Ocean Towers common areas, facilities and financial
matters. We have a year round Condominium Manager, Maintenance Manager and Office
Manager. This staff provides all administrative, Security, maintenance, custodial,
recreational services and personnel for Ocean Towers.
WOT is unique in
that we have both commercial and residential units within our two towers (buildings).
There are approximately 25 commercial units, some of which are accessed via the
boardwalk and others from the mezzanine. We also have 176 residential units (88
in each building).
Web Site
Our Communications Committee
maintains a web site for WOT. The URL for the site is www.wildwoodoceantowers.org.
The site has current information about various activities at WOT plus a section
that only our owners can access, called “Owners’ Only.” This section contains,
among other things, an email and contact list for the owners who have opted to
provide that information. Other features will be available as development continues.
We encourage you to access the site often to stay current on what’s happening
at WOT.
Committees
Architectural The
committee was created to act as liaison between our architect, engineer, contractor
and the Board of Directors in matters relating to exterior design (as opposed
to structural) issues during our building renovations. The role has since expanded
to include interior design issues. The committee’s vision is to make Ocean Towers
a premiere ocean front condominium from a design perspective. It is the committee’s
mission to advise and oversee all design related matters. In addition to continuing
its’ work on our exterior renovations, the committee is charged with developing
a 3-to-5-year plan outlining building design upgrades, both interior and exterior,
and estimating budget needs for the improvements.
Budget
and Finance The Budget and Finance Committee plans and oversees
the financial activity of Wildwood Ocean Towers Condominium Association. The committee
chair is the liaison to the association’s auditor. The vision of the Budget and
Finance Committee is to make Ocean Towers financially stable. Its mission is to
ensure sound fiscal management.
Communications
This committee is responsible for all direct, non-personal
communications between the Board of Directors, owners, and staff. The committee
maintains the WOTCA web site and publishes the quarterly newsletter. Its vision
is to enhance communication so as to improve the relationships between owners,
staff, and community. Included in its mission, among other things, is to seek
out ways to continually improve communication while reducing costs.
Election
The Election Committee oversees the Board of Director elections for our September
Annual meeting. Ordinarily this committee is “in session” for 6 to 8 weeks preceding
the election. Their mission is to ensure our election procedures are in compliance
with our governing documents while simplifying the process for both nominees and
“voters.”
Master Deed/By-Laws The
Master Deed/By-Laws Committee serves as a pool of expertise to ensure that the
Association adheres to the requirements outlined in the Master Deed and By-Laws
while remaining cognizant of the New Jersey Condominium Act. The committee’s vision
and mission are to continually examine our governing documents to ensure they
enable us to operate our property in compliance with our Vision, Mission Statement,
and Goals.
Safety The original
purpose of the Safety Committee was to be the liaison between the Wildwood Fire
Department and Ocean Towers. The Committee’s duties have expanded to include all
safety aspects at the Towers. The Committee’s vision/mission is to make Ocean
Towers a safe place to live and work and to be an example to other condominiums
in regards to safety.
Social One
of the primary goals we are striving to achieve at WOTCA is better communication
and improved relationships among owners. One method for accomplishing that goal
is for people to get together for social activities. This committee is charged
with that task.
Special
Projects This is a committee which will take on miscellaneous projects
which are assigned to owners and/or directors. Some examples include: Sale of
T-Shirts with Ocean Towers logo... Alternate dispute resolution procedures....
Suggestion box items. The group will not function as a committee but rather a
grouping of “mini-committees” each working on their own projects. The chairperson
is responsible for keeping the projects on track and on target for completion. |
