| Waiver request submitted by Dennis Michael McCullough, a member of the Caddo Parish Fire District #6, regarding a $1,450 late fee assessed for filing his 2011 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 29 days late. |
|
Mr. McCullough states he serves on the Fire District without compensation. He says he does not recall the Board of Ethics sending a form to filled out. He says he remembers the Fire District secretary asking if he filed a 2011 or 2012 pfd. At which point he filed out the form that the secretary provided. Mr. McCullough feels the $1450 late fee is not deserved.
It appears that his wife signed for the notice of delinquency and the late fee order.
