Waiver request submitted by Kayla Michelle Henry, Chief of Police/ Gueydan/Vermilion Parish (Pop. 1,398), regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2016 Tier 3 annual PFD 145 days late. |
|
Ms. Henry states that she faxed her disclosure in early January 2018, shortly after she received a certified letter stating she had not filed her PFD for 2016. She is requesting a waiver since she states she faxed the document, mailed the document, and does not have the $1500. She states that she would not have disregarded the fact that she must file the form or simply just not send it in.
IT request for fax results show no fax was submitted during January 2018.
