Waiver request submitted by Gregory Guy Hill, former member of the Springfield Board of Aldermen / Livingston Parish, regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing his 2021 amended Tier 3 annual pfd 57 days late. |
|
Gregory Hill, who currently serves as an alderman in Springfield, was voted out in 2021 and inadvertently failed to file a disclosure. After realizing the mistake, he submitted the disclosure and set up a payment plan. Mr. Hill unintentionally omitted his wife's income and promptly faxed the amended disclosure after being notified of the error. However, the BOE did not receive the updated paperwork, so he later resent it and was fined again.
