Waiver request submitted by Stephanie Robinson Clarke, former member of the West Feliciana Parish Tourist Commission, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her 2013 Tier 2.1 Annual PFD 369 days late. |
|
Ms. Clarke states that because she resigned from the commission in 2013, she did not think she was required to file a personal financial disclosure statement covering 2013. Ms. Clarke also states that notices were sent to old addresses; however, the green card receipt (for the NOD-FF) is signed for by Ms. Clarke.
