RE:
Request that the Board waive the $760.00 campaign finance late fee assessed against Kimberly Powers, an unsuccessful candidate for Member of School Board, District, Central Community in the November 8, 2022 election, whose 10-G campaign finance disclosure report was filed 19 days late.
Facts:
Ms. Powers requests a waiver and states the following:

She believes that she previously forwarded bank statements from her campaign account to illustrate her inability to pay. Her personal finances are close to the same status. She is living in "emergency mode" and facing 2 surgeries which have affected her ability to work and meet obligations. Ms. Powers is willing to appear before the Board.
