RE:
Request the Board waive the $600, $975 and $600 campaign finance late fees assessed against Milton Gordon, a candidate for Councilman at Large, City of Alexandria in the November 6, 2012 election, whose 10-P, 10-G and EDE-P campaign finance disclosure reports were filed 226, 203 and 208 days late.
Facts:
In connection with his request that the Board waive the late fees assessed for the late filing of the report, Milton C. Gordon states that he was under the impression that the previous fine that he paid was an end to this matter until he received a certified letter from the investigator. He would like to have a payment plan if the fee is not waived. He also states that he is a full time student at LSU-A and that he was unemployed until 3 weeks ago.
