Waiver request submitted by Kieran Coleman, former member of the White Lake Property Advisory Board, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his 2013 Tier 2.1 pfd 162 days late. |
|
Mr. Coleman states that the board rarely met and did not know he was required to file. The counsel for the board requested several advisory opinions regarding the requirement to file advising the staff that this board had not met in several years. Finally, in August 2016, the board was abolished by the legislature.
