Mission & Vision
I’m Richard Kennedy, and I’m running for Frederick County Board of Supervisors, Shawnee District
My vision for Frederick County is a community where every person has a voice in the planning for our future.
We can be a part of the strategic growth of the region in areas such as higher-paying job opportunities, county-wide connectivity, high-quality education, improved transportation in roads and
mass transit, and accessible healthcare.
We are currently experiencing dramatic change to our daily lives due to the COVID-19 virus, but together we can plan for growth and recovery to re-build our community for our children’s future.
I have the business expertise, connections with community Leaders, and the vision for the future of Frederick County. Please support me in building our future.
