| Waiver request submitted by Alena S. Aycock, Creola Mayor - Grant Parish, regarding a $700 late fee assessed for filing her 2013 Tier 3 annual PFD 14 days late. |
|
Ms. Aycock states that she filed the disclosure statement. She states that when she received the NOD she attempted to contact this agency; however, after leaving messages she says she did not get a return call. A review of the database indicates that staff spoke with Ms. Aycock on February 26, 2016.
The database also indicates that a search was conducted by the IT Division to determine if a PFD was previously received or faxed to the Board. The result - a PFD was not filed.
Ms. Aycock states she is a mother of three and cannot afford the $700 late fee.
