WOODBRIDGE — A study of the rural area of Prince William County, and how to preserve it, has been collecting dust for five years.
The “Rural Preservation Study” in 2014 attracted residents who live in the western rural area of the county, dubbed the “rural crescent.” Many want to cash out and sell their land to housing developers. The meetings also drew conservationists who, on the opposite end of the spectrum, want to preserve the rural character of the county and leave it as is.
