RE:
Request that the Board waive the $160.00 campaign finance late fee assessed against, Timothy "Tim" Baudier, a successful candidate for Mayor, City of Harahan, Jefferson Parish, in the November 8, 2022 election, and his committee's chairperson, Austin Todd Roser, whose 2023 Supplemental campaign finance disclosure report was filed 4 days late.
Facts:
Austin T. Roser, Committee Chairperson, is submitting a request on behalf of Timothy Baudier and states the following: Two elections were open - one for 2018 and 2022. They did not realize they needed to file two separate reports for two different elections. However, they did disclose everything in one report. They immediately responded and corrected their error once they were made aware of it. This was a clear misunderstanding, they will surely do better moving forward.
