Reconsideration of the Board's denial of a waiver request submitted by Lisa L. Mills, Hurstville Security District, regarding a $1400 late fee assessed for filing her 2015 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 28 days late. |
|
Ms. Mills requests a reconsideration as she thought the secretary for the District was filing the reports for the members. She again states that she does not receive any payment for her service.
Initial Information:
Ms. Mills stated that she did not respond to the NOD because she thought the PFD that she filed in 2015 was the PFD that was being requested in the NOD. She stated that she now realizes that the PFD filed in 2015 covered calendar year 2014.
Ms. Mills requested that the late fee be waived. She explained that she is a volunteer and does not receive any remuneration for her services. She stated she has no financial interest in any governmental entity. She stated that the security district is only interested in keeping their neighborhood safe.
