Narrative:
Cleared for the ILS to runway 6. Intercepted the localizer and GS (glideslope). Crossed dandy at around 1700. Dandy has a mandatory altitude of 1500. If you are on the GS you will cross dandy slightly above 1500. Weather was marginal and focus was on the approach and remaining on the localizer and GS. Altitude deviation was not intentional. This mandatory altitude at dandy needs to be removed or changed to meet the GS altitude.
