Waiver request submitted by LaToya Ivory Howze, former member of the Basile Board of Alderman / District 1 / Acadia and Evangeline Parishes, regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing her 2022 Tier 3 annual pfd 231 days late. |
|
|
LaToya Ivory Howze states that her failure to file was an oversight due to the chaos of moving into a new home and recently being diagnosed with chronic health issues. She is currently on extended medical leave and does not have the resources to pay the $500 late fee. Ms. Howze would like to request a waiver but is willing to set up a payment plan if the fee is not waived.
