Waiver request submitted by George William Moore, Mooringsport Town Council-Member at Large- Caddo Parish, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2014 Tier 3 annual PFD 293 days late. |

Mr. Moore stated that he thought he was completing the personal financial disclosure correctly and included his social security income. He states he now understands that social security income should not be disclosed, but income from the town should be disclosed. He stated that a late fee would create a financial hardship. Correspondence was sent asking him to submit supporting documentation. A response has not been received.
