Waiver request submitted by Dwayne Alden Sanner, former member of the Cameron Parish School Board - District 2, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2014 Tier 3 annual pfd 193 days late. |
|
Mr. Sanner stated that he did not intentionally file the PFD late. He explained that his term ended in 2014 and the PFD at issue was due at a time when he was not serving on the school board. Mr. Sanner explained that the school board would assist the members with these filings. As a result, he had no one to remind him to file.
Mr. Sanner also stated that at the time the amendment was due he had eight people living in his home and his 98 year old mother was living next door. He explained that everyone was receiving mail at his house and it was often mixed together and sometimes trashed.
