Why Greenfield Lilly “jobs” matter
Wednesday, 01 November 2006
Jobs at Eli Lilly's Greenfield Laboratories matter to Hancock County. Hancock County has even honored Lilly with tax abatements based on the number of new jobs produced at Greenfield Laboratories. We have followed the employment pronouncements at Greenfield Lilly now for some time. Despite many conflicting numbers over the years, in an October 27th Daily Reporter article, Lilly announced only 360 Elanco Animal Health employees and about the same number of Eli Lilly “local employees.” We find this astonishingly low number of Lilly employees at Greenfield labs to be inconsistent with the promises they have made to the County.
 
Lilly lays down the law
Wednesday, 21 December 2005
As to the the outcome of the case: We couldn't be more pleased – our wishes were delivered – our Roads remain. Obviously, it was a huge win for us.

Letter to the Editor
Friday, 24 June 2005
This was a letter to the Editor of the Daily Reporter from Rosemary Huffman originally published in their paper on June 24, 2005.  It focuses on the status of the Roads in the Hancock County Comprehensive Plan. Ultimately, after intensive lobbying, the Roads did end up staying in the Comprehensive Plan map but the amendment to hand over the authority of the plan commission regarding all road vacation provisions, placing it solely in the discretion of the county commissioners was made part of the plan.

Lilly Greenfield jobs vanishing
Sunday, 02 May 2004
In an unprecedented analysis of Lilly's employment reports spanning over 16 years of proclamations, we've learned that trends are hard to break. Nearly a year later, with the most recent reports, we look once again at the touted employment figures for Lilly's Greenfield Laboratories. You can do the math - it's not fuzzy logic...

"Security" - A Tough Pill to Swallow
Saturday, 07 June 2003

SECURITY IS A NECESSARY OPERATIONAL COST FOR ANY INDUSTRY

Security is a universal problem that did not begin with 9/11. There is significant potential for security problems at every industrial facility. No one wants Lilly or its employees to be insecure.
