Waiver request submitted by Kortlan William Pittman, former member of the Village of Angie Board of Aldermen / Washington Parish, regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 3 annual pfd 580 days late. |

|
Kortlan Pittman did not submit his disclosure because he purchased a home in another city and resigned as an Alderman in April 2022. The NOD was mailed to his old address in September 2023 and received by his mother. Mr. Pittman's mother filled his seat as Alderman and brought the NOD to the town hall. She was assured it would be taken care of. On 5/10/2025, there was an attempt to deliver the LFO to his old address, which was eventually delivered to his current address. Mr. Pittman assumed he didn't have to file a disclosure since he only served four months and resigned. He is more than willing to comply.
