Waiver request submitted by Rykert O. Toledano, Jr., St. Tammany Parish Council / District 5, regarding a $2500 late fee assessed for filing his 2023 Tier 2 annual pfd 79 days late. |
|
Rykert O. Toledano, Jr. does not recall receiving the delinquency notice because he would have immediately amended his disclosure. He has filed on time his entire time in office. He left office on 12/31/2023 and was unaware of the delinquency until the Late Fee Order was received. Mr. Tolendano believes the delinquency notice may have been lost during his office relocation.
