Last Saturday, more than 1,500 individuals attended the 32nd Annual Hazelwood PTA Council Scholarship Run/Walk event. The primary event took place in front of Hazelwood Central High School, but participants could be seen throughout the run/walk route on New Halls Ferry Road, Patterson Road and Greenway Chase in North County.

For more than three decades, this family-friendly event, along with other PTA Council fundraisers have raised more than $2.9 million for the Hazelwood PTA Student Scholarship Fund, which benefits deserving HSD graduating seniors. Since the program inception in 1959, Hazelwood PTA Council has provided more than 3,000 scholarships to students.

BRIDGETON, MO (KTVI) – There are new developments in the case of foul odors coming from a Bridgeton, Missouri, landfill and making life miserable for people living nearby.

Tuesday morning, Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster announced an agreement with the owners of the landfill to help the residents and clean up the site.

Attorney General Koster describes the agreement with Republic Services, Inc. as the first step in addressing the immediate and long term issues raised by the conditions at the site.

The Bridgeton landfill is off St. Charles Rock Road, west of Interstate 270.

The foul odor is coming from an underground fire burning at the landfill which is not active.

Koster filed suit against Republic Services in March, alleging violations of Missouri’s environmental laws.
