“This is something that is helpful in the county
where there is a lot of dumping on farms, public parks, rural areas, where people just drive out to the side of the road and dump their trash.”
“We are a non-partisan committee,” GAC Chair Reda Bennani told the representatives present. “But we do have a mission, and our mission is to advocate on behalf of commerce. And so our position will always be pro-commerce, pro- business, and anything that effects our local businesses you will see us knocking on your door.”
Bennani went on to add, “We are against red tape... Commerce is the main motor to our economy. We are an Ag industry area and it’s difficult for us to see what’s going on in Sacramento.”
Also attending last Wednesday's GAC meeting was newly-sworn Tulare County Supervisor Eddie Valero. Known for his many hats, Valero may need to add a few more to his collection as he told the committee that he was recently appointed to ten additional committees.
Among those he was appointed to are the Ag Policy Advisory Committee, the Countywide Oversight Committee, the Gang Task Force, the Kings River East Groundwater Sustainability Agency and the Tulare County Association of Governments.

Jeffrey Neal Eubanks
FATHER FARMER FRIEND
Jeffrey Neal Eubanks was born April 22, 1959, in Dinuba, CA, to Billy Max and Connie Friesen Eubanks. He was raised in the Sultana area by his grandparents, Raymond and Almedia Friesen. He attended Monson Sultana School and graduated from Dinuba High School. Jeff excelled in sports all through school from “King of the Court” to “CSL All League” for the Emperors.
Jeff met Colette in Spanish class as Freshmen, started dating as Juniors and graduated together with the class of “77. They were married on October 13, 1979 in Las Vegas with their best friends, Deanna, Bruce and Steve at their side.
Jeff always worked, from the age of 5, on his grandfather’s farm. In high school and while attending Reedley College, he also worked for Best Texaco. In 1978 he was hired by Martens Chevrolet in Reedley and still farmed. In 1985, his son Patrick was born. In 1989, Jeff still farmed and worked and welcomed daughter, Katy. Jeff went to work for George Jackson in 1992 while still farming. He played City League basketball and taught his children to work hard and play sports harder. Jeff farmed up until his health took a turn for the worst this last year. In November 2018, he sold the farm and made the move to Hanford – only the third town he had ever lived in.
Jeff loved shing, hunting, camping, sports, his grandchildren and, of course, farming.
Jeff is survived by his wife of 39 years, Colette; his son Patrick Eubanks and his wife, Erin; his daughter, Katy Reed and her husband, Kyle; his grandsons, Logan Eubanks and Konnor Reed; soon to be born granddaughter, Kindred Reed; his loving sister, Janna Hurt and her husband, Donnie; his brother-in-law, Michael Erskine and his wife, Terri; his beloved dog, Bear; cousins, nephews, nieces, brother and co-workers, and many friends.
