Fredericksburg City Councilman Matt Kelly announced on Town Talk this week that he will seek re-election in 2016.

“There are issues that will set the tone for the final development of the city and I would like to be part of that process,” Kelly told WFVA News Director and Town Talk Host Ted Schubel.

Kelly cited the new Strategic Economic Development Plan, the hiring of an Historic Resources Planner, and transportation as important topics facing Fredericksburg. He is the longest serving member on the Fredericksburg Area Metropolitan Planning Organization, which oversees federal transportation projects.
