| Request that the Board waive the $320 campaign finance late fee assessed against Sherman Jackson, in his capacity as a candidate for Chief of Police, City of Gonzales, in the November 8, 2016 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 8 days late. |

Leslie Jackson, the candidate's wife, states that this was the first time her husband ran unopposed and they did not know they still had to submit the 30-P report. After receiving the letter about oversight, it was immediately prepared and submitted.
