Waiver request submitted by Geraldine "Geri" Broussard Baloney, Ernest N. Morial-New Orleans Exhibition Hall Authority, regarding a $400 late fee assessed for filing her 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 8 days late. |
|
Geraldine Broussard failed to file her PFD associated with her service as commissioner with the Ernest N. Morial New Orleans Exhibition Hall Authority. It was an oversight because Ms. Broussard believed the report had been filed when she completed her Ethics training course in 2023. She was out of the country at the time, which may be why the form was not correctly uploaded. Ms. Broussard is currently working out of town and received the FTF notice on 2/23/2024 when she briefly returned. She immediately submitted the disclosure. Ms. Broussard would like to apologize for any inconvenience this mishap may have caused and request a waiver of the late fee assessed.
