Request that the Board waive the $3,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against the Association for LA Public Health Advocates, it's committee's chairperson, Barry Bernhard, and it's treasurer, Henry Heier, whose March 2015 Monthly report was filed 31 days late. |

Henry Heier, Treasurer, for the Association for LA Public Health Advocates PAC, states that their PAC Compliance consulting firm, Postlehwaite and Netterville ( P &N ), had personnel changes and ALPHA's timely March 2015 filing was not posted by their consultant. ALPHA was not aware that the March 2015 filing was not done by P &N nor did they have any reason to believe that the firm did not make its usual filing for them. They have been assured by P &N that steps have been taken to avoid such action going forward.
