§ 12-04 Procedure for Requesting Waiver.
RCNY § 12-04
(a)Any person seeking a waiver from the doing business database in connection with a transaction considered a business dealing with the city shall obtain a waiver application form from the CCPO as described in 43 RCNY § 12-07. The waiver applicant shall provide all information that is required of waiver applicants and submit the application to the agency involved with the transaction.
(b)Within ten (10) business days of receipt of the waiver application from the applicant, the agency shall provide all information that is required of agencies and submit the completed application to the CCPO. The CCPO shall notify the waiver applicant when the waiver application is received from the agency.
(c)If the agency fails to complete its portion of the waiver application and/or fails to submit the application to the CCPO within ten (10) business days, the waiver applicant may submit the application directly to the CCPO. The CCPO shall then contact the agency in order to obtain the agency's portion of the waiver application.
(d)Upon receipt of a waiver application pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, the CCPO shall forward the application to the campaign finance board. The waiver application may not be acted on by the CCPO for ten (10) days from the date of receipt of the application by the campaign finance board.
(e)Upon action on a waiver application by the CCPO, both the applicant and agency shall be notified. If the waiver is granted, the applicant shall not be required to provide the data covered by the waiver. If the CCPO determines that a waiver should be denied, in full or in part, to an applicant doing business with an independently elected official other than the Mayor (or with an agency under the control of such an official), the CCPO shall notify such agency at least five (5) days prior to issuance of any such denial determination, and shall consider the agency's written response, if any, before making the final determination.
(f)Determinations by the CCPO are final.
