| Request that the Board reconsider its decision to decline to waive a $480 campaign finance late fee assessed against April D. Williams, an unsuccessful candidate for Member of School Board, District 2, Jefferson Parish, in the November 6, 2018 election, whose 2020 Supplemental campaign finance disclosure report was filed 8 days late. |
|
Reconsideration states: She was unaware she needed to file report.
Original request stated:
She acknowledges the report was filed 8 days past the deadline. It was an error on her understanding of the applicable laws. She did not have any contributions or expenditures which made her believe that a report was not required to be filed. When she received the delinquency notice, she filed the report.
