RE:
Request that the Board waive the $1,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against Clint Cradeur, an unsuccessful candidate for Mayor, City of Crowley, Acadia Parish, in the November 8, 2022 election, whose 2021 Annual campaign finance disclosure report was filed 100 days late.
Facts:
Clint Cradeur requests a waiver and states the following:

He used his own funds and there were no outside contributions in 2021. He just slightly exceeded the $2500 expenditure threshold. As Alderman, he was unopposed and was initially unfamiliar with the filing requirements as a first time filer. He filed the required form immediately after he realized the report was required.
