RE:
Waiver request submitted by Kevin Colligan, a member of the Cankton Board of Aldermen (St. Landry Parish), regarding a $200 late fee assessed for filing his 2011 Tier 3 annual pfd 4 days late.
Facts:
Mr. Colligan believes he faxed it after he received the notice of delinquency. However, he does not have a confirmation sheet as the town was not printing these sheets to save money. The town has now changed that practice.

A fax search was down by the IT Department and no fax was discovered.
