RE:
Waiver request submitted by George Rabb, Friends of King Charter School, regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing his 2020 Tier 3 annual pfd 23 days late.
Facts:
George Rabb is requesting a waiver based on circumstances following the COVID-19 disruption of both physical and financial matters. Mr. Rabb is 73 years old and has health concerns due to his cancer-related history. This has affected his ability to respond to business matters, which were sometimes delayed or overlooked. He is asking to have a fee waived without having to make an appearance.
