In the final weeks of his campaign to become the next Occoquan District Supervisor, Kenny Boddye addressed the governing board on which he would soon be elected.
"Every dollar we spend on the rural crescent, to develop it and put houses out there, is a dollar that we can't put toward schools in the eastern end [of Prince William County] where we have some of the oldest schools in the region," Boddye said on October 15, 2019.
