RE:
Request that the Board waive a $520 campaign finance late fee assessed against William E. "Bill" Willson, unopposed candidate for Member of School Board, District 3, City of Monroe, Ouachita Parish, in the November 8, 2022 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 13 days late.
Facts:
William E. "Bill" Willson requests a waiver and states the following:


He thought his Campaign Finance Report was due on 10/29/2022, ten days before the Election on 11/8/2022. He found out that since he ran unopposed, he should have filed on 10/15/2022. He filled out his report the same day of finding out it was past due. He would like to request a waiver of his late fee and penalties since he feels he made an understandable mistake.
