Waiver request submitted by Christopher Corzo, former member of the St. George Fire Protection District, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 389 days late. |
|
|
Christopher Corzo states that his wife manages the mail, so he was unaware that he had failed to file the disclosure. He served on the St. George Fire Protection District Board through December 2023. Mr. Corzo has never filed an untimely disclosure and has always taken his ethics responsibilities seriously. It was an oversight. Please waive, reduce, or suspend the assessed late fee.
