| Request that the Board waive the $540 campaign finance late fee assessed against Michael O'Brien, a candidate for Councilman, District 2, Jefferson Parish, in the October 24, 2015 election, whose 2019 Supplemental campaign finance disclosure report was filed 9 days late. |
|
Michael O'Brien requests a waiver and states the following:
He did not intentionally file the report late, as he was under the impression that he was filing the information for the 2015 and 2019 elections in the same supplemental report. Upon notification from the staff, he moved the information from the 2015 election into a separate report, as well as amending the SUPP2019.
