RE:
Request that the Board waive the $600 campaign finance late fee assessed against LA Associated General Contractors' Construction Industry PAC, a political action committee, its committee's chairperson, Jonathan Kernion, and treasurer, Derrell D. Cohoon, whose February 2023 Monthly campaign finance disclosure report was filed 3 days late.
Facts:


Amy Rispone, Office Administrator for LA Associated General Contractors' Construction Industry PAC, requests a waiver and states the following: They have been a PAC since 1999 and this is their first time filing late. They were waiting to receive the bank statement with the interest earned for that month. Ms. Rispone has since applied for access to online banking so this does not happen again.
