| Waiver request submitted by Denise Bruno, Ascension Parish School Board - District 6, Seat A, regarding a $2,500 assessed for not filing her Amended 2013 Tier 2 Candidate PFD to date. |

Ms. Bruno states that she faxed the paperwork to the fax number provided in the packet twice. Her original pfd was faxed to the office. However, this matter involves an amendment. She also states that she can not afford the late fee due to the fact she is not working and is on maternity leave. This was Ms. Bruno's first time running for office.
