SAN JC ' UIN FARM BUREA ' T GDERATION <br /> 241-00� MEETING TODAY'S CHALLENGES/PLANNING FOR TOMORROW <br /> July 24, 2019 <br /> Attn: Giuseppe Sanfilippo <br /> San Joaquin County Community Development Department <br /> Development Services Division <br /> 1810 E. Hazelton Avenue <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 <br /> RE: PA-1900117 (SA) <br /> Dear Mr.Sanfilippo: <br /> The San Joaquin Farm Bureau Federation is a private, not for profit volunteer organization that is <br /> dedicated to the protection and promotion of agriculture in San Joaquin County. In addition to <br /> production agriculture,the industry also sustains many support industries that are essential to the <br /> continued viability of family farms. <br /> We support this application for truck and trailer parking on AG-40 zoned property if the applicant is an <br /> Ag Hauler. Custom hauling is critical to the success of small farms that do not have the resources to fully <br /> integrate and do their own transportation. It is critical that these businesses are not driven out of the <br /> areas where they have existed for many years due to urban encroachment. <br /> If the trucks and trailers will be used for ag hauling,we support this application to approve the site for <br /> the parking of two trucks and four trailers.This is an agricultural use on land that it is still designated for <br /> agriculture. Please keep us informed as to when this item is scheduled to be heard by the Commission. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> David Strecker <br /> President <br /> 3290 NORTH AD ART ROAD•(209)931-4931 •STOCKTON,CALIFORNIA 95215 <br />
