Gayle Fisher's term on the LA Workforce Investment Board 20 ended on 6/30/2018.She wasn't aware a final report would be due nor did the LWDA 20 WIB Board advise her to do so. She relocated out of the LA Workforce location at 1721 S. Burnside, Gonzales, LA in July 2018. She never received any forwarded notices or was told about said notices. This particular location was closed on 9/30/2019. She has attached a certified green card signed by someone else dated 1/8/2020. Had she received anything she would have responded immediately. Her previous reports were filed on time. Ms. Fisher is a state employee placed on the board to represent the LA Workforce Commission as part of the requirements of the WIOA Program. Financially, she is unable to pay and is asking for a waiver of the assessed late fee. She has worked for this state for 55 years and is a dedicated employee.
