Waiver request submitted by Dorothy Spencer, a member of the Pleasant Hill Board of Aldermen, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her 2009 Tier 3 annual pfd 327 days late; a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her 2010 Tier 3 annual pfd 360 days late; and a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her amended 2011 Tier 3 candidate pfd 149 days late. |

Ms. Spencer does not understand why she is being assessed as she states she filled out the forms at the LMA conference ethics meeting. Further, she states the Mayor told her she was not required to file. Ms. Spencer states she is 71 years old on a fixed income with medical bills, medicines, and under a nephrologist care. She states that she is under a debt consolidation for $350/month.
Supporting documentation was requested and nothing was submitted in response.
