| Request that the Board waive the $1,800 campaign finance late fee assessed against Rig PAC, a political action committee, its committee's chairperson, Bob Meredith and treasurer, Jordan Gleason, whose September 2018 Monthly Report campaign finance report was filed 9 days late. |
|
|
Gifford Briggs, executive director for Rig PAC, states that they have a record of filing their reports timely, and missing this deadline was a human error that was caused by a miscommunication within the office. As soon as he realized the error, he states that he voluntarily called the Ethics office to resolve the matter.
