Staff Analysis of the Legislation

This legislation, while covering multiple issues last session, now just authorizes the Georgia Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Commission to waive penalties improperly assessed against local elected officials who did not file, filed late, or filed an incomplete contribution disclosure report or personal financial disclosure statement from Jan. 1, 2010 to Jan. 10, 2014.  Said reports may again be filed in paper format for a fee of $40. Up until December 31, 2016, there is a grace period for those who did not file, filed late, or filed an incomplete report in that four-year period whereby the public official will be deemed in compliance.
