Introduced by COMMITTEE ON RULES -- (at request of M. of A. Lavine) --
read once and referred to the Committee on Real Property Taxation
AN ACT in relation to permitting the Islamic Center of Long Island to
file an application for certain real property tax exemptions
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law, the asses-
sor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from the
Islamic Center of Long Island, an application for exemption from real
property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law
for the 2013-2014, 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 assessment rolls with respect
to a portion of the 2014, 2015 and 2016 general tax and the 2013-2014,
2014-2015 and 2015-2016 school tax for the parcel owned by such not-for-
profit corporation which is located at 14 Talbot Drive, village of West-
bury, town of North Hempstead, county of Nassau, otherwise known as
Nassau county tax map section 11, block 376, lot 16. If accepted, the
application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before
the taxable status date established for such rolls. If satisfied that
such not-for-profit organization would otherwise be entitled to such
exemptions if such not-for-profit organization had filed an application
for exemption by the appropriate taxable status dates, the assessor,
upon approval by the Nassau county legislature may make appropriate
correction to the subject rolls. If such exemptions are granted and such
organization, therefore, shall have paid any taxes with respect to the
subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax department may, in
its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and
cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining
unpaid.
S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
