Transportation
Tulare County Farm Bureau is in favor of
supporting both the Highway 65 and 198 projects and also encourage those
communities involved to work together to ensure that this does come
about.
Marketing Orders
Tulare County Farm Bureau in agreement
with both the CFBF and the AFBF policies strongly supports the principle
of marketing orders which are used as self help tools for today's
farmers. Tulare County Farm Bureau strongly opposes and is
critical of present USDA administration for making any substantive
change in a marketing order during the course of the harvest season
through the proper procedures.
Per Parcel Assessment
Tulare County Farm Bureau opposes county
service areas funded by per parcel assessment.
Oak Tree Ordinance
Tulare County Farm Bureau opposes the oak
tree ordinance but supports preservation of oak trees in Tulare County
on a voluntary basis.
Payments of CFBF Delegate and
Alternate Expenses
Since delegates are paid a per diem for
attendance to the annual meeting, they will be billed by TCFB for
pre-registration, hotel deposits, spouse registration and other expense
prepaid by TCFB.
TCFB will pay for alternate delegates'
expenses or registration and lodging. Spouse registration is not
paid by TCFB.
It is suggested that alternates receive
per diem equivalent to delegates per diem. Number of alternates
will be the same number as delegates. Suggested that alternates be
given more responsibility and accountability.
Fruitfly Action Committee Task Force
FACT will be under the umbrella of Tulare
County Farm Bureau.
