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.
