RE:
Request that the Board waive the $600 campaign finance late fee assessed against Wayne "Coach" Williams, a candidate for Member of School Board, District 14, Calcasieu Parish, in the November 6, 2018 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 15 days late.
Facts:
Wayne "Coach" Williams states that the late filing of the 30-P report was truly an oversight on his behalf. He states he read the letter explaining the reporting days and he was a little confused about the forms, the period the report covered, and the due date. When he saw that 30 -P dates were from January 1st thru September 27th, 2018, he states he didn't realize it applied to his reporting.
