| Untimely waiver request submitted by Stoney Broussard, Gueydan Police Chief, Vermilion Parish, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his 2012 Tier 3 annual pfd 171 days late. |
|
The waiver request was sent in four days late. No reason was given for the late filing of the waiver request.
Mr. Broussard states that he resigned as Police Chief on April 2, 2013. And for most of the year preceding his resignation, he was not engaged in inter office activities and not receiving all mail addressed to him. He assumed that the city clerk had filed his pfd as she had in the past.
He states that he has been under a lot of stress due to family loss and working overtime in the streets due to lack of manpower.
