RE:
Waiver request submitted by Mark M. "Aubrey" Cole, State Police Commission, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 90 days late.
Facts:
Mark Cole mailed his disclosure in March 2023. So, when he received the FTF notice in March 2024, he assumed it was an error. He filed the 2023 disclosure on time and thought everything was in order. Mr. Cole has always taken his filing responsibilities seriously and complied with all requirements timely. This was an unfortunate occurrence. Measures have been taken to prevent future oversights. Mr. Cole would like to thank you for your understanding and consideration. Please waive and refund the $1500 late fee.

*It appears that he listed the incorrect years in his waiver request. Years have been updated in request.
