We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?
Thank you for supporting Radio Free Hub City!
Each person is permitted to submit one application per available permit, and if the number of applications does not exceed fifty, permits will be awarded to all eligible applicants. Should the number of submissions surpass the available slots, the Commission will conduct a random lottery. This drawing will take place by June 1, 2025, at City Hall, located at 101 N. Court Street. Winners selected during this lottery will not be eligible for a refund of their application fee.

We didn't pick our name by accident. While other outlets are proud to be government 'Partners,' we are proud to be exactly what our namesake requires: Free from government influence, and free from government censorship. We don't lock our news behind a paywall, will you help us keep it that way? If you're tired of news sweetened with confirmation bias that never questions the 'official story', consider becoming a monthly supporter. Just $5/month helps fund our local reporting, live election night coverage, and more.
Applications can be obtained at three locations in Frederick: the Frederick Police Department Headquarters at 100 W. Patrick Street, the Police Professional Services Division at 136 W. Patrick Street, and online at the city’s official website, www.cityoffrederick.com. Interested individuals may also contact the Special Vehicle Coordinator by phone or email for further information or to receive an application directly.
