[edit]

This is just a start, there's a lot more to be said about T.R. Carr and his tenure as mayor of Hazelwood. Probably need to highlight these items:

Ford

  • Ford's announcement it would close its vehicle assembly plant in Hazelwood
  • Task force formed ... kept plant open another two years
  • Redevelopment of plant site by Pannatoni Corp.

Other economic development/issues

  • St. Louis Mills mall (also include environmental/wetland issues)
  • Hazelwood Commerce Center (Robertson area)
  • Park 370
  • General Mills/Pillsbury plant
  • Walgreen's/Elm redevelopment

Other stuff that might be good to cover

  • Trauma unit at DePaul
  • Nelly's bar/grill
  • Gun ordinance
  • Water park

Ford plant is most important topic, and the one that made Hazelwood and Carr newsworthy across the country.
