When residents first asked why Warwick Township didn’t record or broadcast public meetings, the Township Manager, Kyle Seckinger, explained that Warwick’s smaller size and single monthly meeting schedule made such efforts financially challenging. He noted that larger neighboring townships like Warminster, Northampton, and Warrington have bigger budgets, more frequent meetings, and the staff to manage recording equipment.

He further stated that the costs of professional video systems, software subscriptions, and dedicated staff would be significant, and that past surveys showed most residents wanted funds prioritized toward police, fire, EMS, open space preservation, roads, and recreation.

After hearing this, we decided to take action ourselves. Warwick Hub was created to make meetings accessible to everyone — at minimal cost and without burdening taxpayers. Our livestream setup costs just $51.99 per month for the streaming service and $105 for a stabilizing gimbal, proving that transparency doesn’t have to come with a large price tag.

Our goal is simple: to ensure every resident has the opportunity to educate, engage, and empower themselves through open access to their local government.
