Editor, Ceres Courier,

David Yonan will be a great addition to the TID board. He not only has

37 years of financial expertise in his background as a Valley agribusiness banker, but he is also an active farmer and is well aware of the water issues facing the valley today. David fits the description of the type of well-rounded leadership needed on the board to see us through the ever-changing landscape of environmental and social issues. David has a keen eye for catching inefficiencies and will be an advocate for watching expenses and ensuring that TID power and water costs remain amongst the lowest in the state.

Please join me in voting for David Yonan, Turlock Irrigation District Director, Division.

Charlie Fernandes,

Director,

Division 2, TID Board
