ALADS Reduce Fair Share Packets
It is that time of the year once again. ALADS has mailed out their reduce fair share packages to all LASPA/ALADS members. Be on the lookout for these packages so that you can request the reduced fee. The deadline is May 15, 2008. Once the deadline passes, those wishing to apply for the reduced fair share, must wait until the following year. You will be stuck paying ALADS the full dues amount.
Remember that ALADS sends these packages once a year only. If for some reason you do not receive a package, please contact ALADS directly and ask them to send you one immediately, so you will not be left behind.
Please note that when you complete these packages you MUST request to challenge the “fair share” amount. Not surprisingly, there is nothing in the package that states this. Therefore, you must specifically state your challenge by letter.
In this regard, LASPA has composed a sample letter for you to use. We’ve attached a sample or you can download one from our website.
We urge that you complete these packages as early as possible. Please send your completed forms to ALADS via certified mail and also submit copies to LASPA, so that they can be stored in your personal file. If you have questions or concerns, please contact our office for more information.
Challenge Letter to ALADS. All members please fill out and mail to ALADS. The form is Microsoft Word format: Challenge Letter Document
