RE:
Request that the Board waive the $360, $180 and $540 campaign finance late fees assessed against John S. Kean IV, a candidate for Parish President, West Feliciana Parish in the October 19, 2013 election, whose 30-P, 10-P and 10-G campaign finance disclosure reports were filed 6, 3 and 9 days late.
Facts:
In connection with his request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the reports, John S. Kean IV states that this was his first district wide race. He said there was confusion on his part about personal finance campaign report vs. campaign finance report. He humbly requests the assessments be waived.
