 AN ACT authorizing the Bais Tefila of Inwood to receive retroactive real
   property tax exempt status
 
   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
 the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
 Bais Tefila of Inwood, an application for exemption from  real  property
 taxes  pursuant  to  section  420-a  of  the  real property tax law with
 respect to the 2019-2020 assessment roll for all  of  the  2020  general
 taxes,  and  a  portion  of  the  2019-2020  school taxes for the parcel
 conveyed to such organization, with such parcel  being  located  at  259
 Doughty Blvd, in the town of Hempstead, otherwise known as Nassau county
 tax  map  section  40, block 163, lot 216.  If accepted, the application
 shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or  before  the  taxable
 status dates established for such rolls.
   If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
 such exemption if such organization had acquired  the  subject  property
 and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
 date,  the assessor, upon approval by the Nassau county legislature, may
 grant exemption from all taxation and make  appropriate  corrections  to
 the  subject rolls.   If such exemption is granted and such organization
 therefore shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll,  the
 governing  body  or  tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide
 for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes,  fines,  penal-
 ties, interest or tax liens remaining unpaid.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
