Liberty considering live-streaming
Township meeting

(2/12) Township Board of Supervisors' Chairman Walter Barlow stated at the board's February 4 meeting that staff is looking into seeking a video service to record township meetings.

Barlow said, “Wendy (Secretary/Treasurer Wendy Peck) got us some prices to get our own camera, and it would be set up here in the room, and stream the videos through the township instead of through a private recorder - Wendy can set that up – and live-stream it, put it on our township Facebook page, and on our website too.”

The chairman stated, “Everybody who's got access to the township website will be able to see it.”

“We're looking at $1,000. That would be for the camera, microphone and stuff like that.” Barlow said there would be a re-occurring charge of $99 a month (according to one proposal) to stream it... We don't have to stream it,” he said.

Barlow stated, “As an alternative, it could simply be posted on the township’s Facebook page, as well as on the existing township website.”

“I don't think that is a bad expenditure at all for the township to get the information out to the public,” Barlow said.
