  • Development Agreement
    i Environmental Protection and Emergency Response Pro- grams DEVELOPMENT AGreeMENT The City of Berkeley Bayer Corporation Annual Report 2008 ii Environmental Protection and Emergency Response Pro- grams TO OUR COMMUNI T Y On behalf of all our employees at Bayer HealthCare’s Berkeley site, I am pleased to present the 16th annual report on our 30-year Development Agreement (“DA”) with the City of Berkeley. Bayer is an inventor company, with a hundred-year history of major discoveries and innovations. Perhaps it is no surprise, then, that we entered into this rare public/ private partnership. The DA gives the City a clean manufacturing facility, producing the most advanced protein-based medicines and operated by a company making a long-term investment in the community as well. Bayer receives the streamlined site development processes that enable such major investments. Both sides can be very proud of the results. Since 1992, Bayer has become the largest for-profit employer in Berkeley, and the Bay Area’s second-largest in biotech. The city has benefited through the nearly $14 million Bayer has contributed through the DA— but it doesn’t stop there. In 2008, Bayer paid over $2.6 million in property taxes alone. Our employee volun- ii teers served as after-school tutors, repainted homeless shelters, and participated in walks, bike rides, and wine tastings to support our patients. Local grants — over $435,000 in 2008 — have continued our leadership with Biotech Partners at Berkeley High School and helped build the YMCA’s downtown Teen Center. A major grant to the Math, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) center at Cal State East Bay helps recruit women and minorities into the sciences.

Black Panther Party: 1966-1982 Abstract The Black Panther party was founded in Oakland, California, in 1966. From its beginnings as a local, community organization with a handful of members, it expanded into a national and international party. By 1980, however, the Black Panther party was once again mainly an Oakland-based organization, with no more than fifty active members. In 1982, the party came to an official end. Despite itselativ r ely short history, its modest membership, and its general eschewing of electoral politics, the Black Panther party was arguably the best known and most controversial of the black militant political organizations of the 1960s, with a legacy that continues to this day.
