RE:
Request that the Board waive the $1500 late fee assessed against Paulette Bailey Wilson for her failure to timely file a Lobbyist Supplemental Registration report.
Facts:
The scope of services Mrs. Wilson provides the CDF changed from advocacy and monitoring legislation statewide on a month to month basis to an official Lobbying contract for 6 months, so she thought she was doing the right thing to reflect the changes in the online system.
