RE:
Request that the Board reconsider its decision to decline to waive a $400 late fee assessed against Tyler J. Turner, a successful candidate for Council Member, Division D, City of Gonzales, Ascension Parish, in the November 3, 2020 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 86 days late.
Facts:
Original waiver request stated that he was unopposed, had no activity, and did not know he was required to file.

Reconsideration points out that the CFDA states that the purpose of reporting is to disclose expenditures and contributions, of which he had none, so no harm was done.
