NEW YORK - Whether you are new to WTCA or have been a member for many years, some of you may wonder about the process that takes place after a membership application has been submitted.  Over fifty percent of applications to WTCA are referrals that come from established WTCs, and applications come in several forms:

• Options to purchase licenses
• Regular memberships
• Transfers of licenses

The member services team here at WTCA works diligently to make an application ready for the WTCA Board when it meets.  Some important components of the membership application and key elements that are common to applications that receive Board approval are: 

• Letters of support and/or recommendation for the WTC project from local government authorities
• A Business Plan and vision for the project
• A site plan for the building (if one is planned)
• Important financial records (if relevant to the applicant’s case)
• Other items that may be helpful to the WTCA Board when making its decision

The basic membership application is available here.  If you know of an interested party that would like more information about becoming a member of the WTCA, please contact me at This email address is being protected from spambots.
