Request that the Board waive the $1,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against Faye Lemoine, a candidate for Alderman, District A, City of Ville Platte (Pop. 7430), Evangeline Parish in the November 6, 2018 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 36 days late. |
|
Faye Lemoine states that she is a first time candidate and was very confused with the reports that were due. She states she mistakenly included all of the information that should have been on the 30-P report on the 10-P report. The 10-P report was amended and the 30-P report has been filed. She states that the reports were done to the best of her knowledge at that any mistakes or delays were not intentional.
