Ecorse, Michigan

Ecorse is a city in Wayne County in the U.S. state of Michigan, named for the Ecorse River. The population was 9,512 at the 2010 census.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Race, Hispanic or Latino, Age, and Housing Occupancy: 2010 Census Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary File (QT-PL), Ecorse city, Michigan )
==History==
The area that would become Ecorse was originally used as a burial ground for the Native American tribes of the area. When settled by the French in the last two decades of the 18th century, it was named ''"Rivière Aux Échorches",'' which means "The River of the Barks" in English.〔("The History of Ecorse ), Ecorse Public Library, accessed September 26, 2009〕
In the 1836 after the community became part of the United States and settled by more English speakers, it was named Grand Port, but remained unincorporated within Ecorse Township.〔(City of Ecorse website ), Community History webpage, accessed 18 October 2011〕 The settlement was incorporated as the village of Ecorse in 1902.〔 Ecorse became a significant economic force in the region when its first steel mill, Michigan Steel Mill, began operation in 1923. The village incorporated as a city in 1941.〔
Since the later 20th century, the city, like most other industrial inner-ring suburbs, has fallen into economic decline. In December 1986, the Wayne County Circuit Court issued a court order appointing a receiver for the bankrupt city. The receivership would last until August 1990, but the city's finances were monitored by the state for another ten years.〔("Ecorse: The Fall and Rise of a Michigan City (introduction)" ), by Robert Daddow, December 1, 1993, The Mackinac Center for Public Policy, accessed September 26, 2009〕
By the fall of 2009, facing a $9 million deficit and a federal corruption probe, Governor Jennifer Granholm declared a financial emergency for the city, paving the way for the appointment of an emergency financial manager. On September 25, 2009, Ecorse Mayor Herbert Worthy and city Controller Erwin Hollenquest were arrested on charges of conspiracy, bribery, and fraud. Both are alleged to have received thousands of dollars in bribes and kickbacks, after the mayor allegedly orchestrated the dismantling of the city's public works department and its replacement with a private contractor, prior to winning his election for mayor.
In 2011, newly inaugurated Governor Rick Snyder assumed the role of interim mayor, still represented by emergency financial manager Joyce Parker who had been appointed by Granholm. Although Darcel Brown was elected mayor of Ecorse later that year, Parker remained in her capacity as Ecorse's emergency financial manager until the end of April 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Michigan Liberal::: Ecorse financial emergency passes, says @onetoughnerd )〕 Upon the end of Ecorse's financial emergency, control of the city was returned to elected officials, led by Brown.
In November 2013, Lamar Tidwell, former police officer and local philanthropist, was elected as mayor of Ecorse.
