| Request that the Board waive the $280 campaign finance late fee assessed against Terry L. Lacombe, a candidate for Acadia Parish Police Jury, District 2 in the October 24, 2015 Election, whose 10-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 7 days late. |

In connection with his request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the report, Terry Lacombe states that he was not aware that he had to file the 10-P report before the election. He states that when he received the late notice he immediately asked his daughter for help in filing it. From that date forward she has assisted him in filing all of his reports timely. Mr. Labcombe states that he is on a fixed income and only receives $1,300 a month. He says that he has to pay utilities, auto insurance, home insurance, health insurance, medical bills, food, etc. with this money and payment of the late fee would create a financial hardship.
