Talk:T.R. Carr

Article expansion
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.
