The options are : 1) The Board may elect to file the Plan through the usual process and provide the IRS with additional infonnation stating that the Plan had not previously filed for a Letter because the Plan followed Colorado State Statutes. 2) The Board may submit a request for leniency by voluntarily complying with audit rules and pay all fines due prior to filing for a Letter of Determination . 3) The Board could not file for a Letter of Determination. Because FPPA will not administer the DROP without a Letter of Determination, this is not an acceptable option . MR.
