RE:
Request that the Board waive the $60.00 campaign finance late fee assessed against Tia Mills, an unsuccessful candidate for Council Member, EBR Metro District 2 in the November 5, 2024 election, whose 10-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 1 day late.
Facts:
Dr. Tia Mills requests a waiver and states the following: It was her first time serving in an office of that magnitude, and she did her best to ensure all deadlines were met. Having limited knowledge of report filing, Dr. Mills made every effort to seek guidance from the BOE after receiving her delinquency notice. However, she had issues making contact. Since this incident, all required reports have been filed timely. Dr. Mills humbly asks that this penalty be waived. She would like to thank you in advance for considering his matter.
