Introduced by M. of A. BLUMENCRANZ -- read once and referred to the
Committee on Real Property Taxation
AN ACT authorizing the Hicksville Water District 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
the Hicksville Water District an application for exemption from real
property taxes pursuant to section 406 and section 410 of the real prop-
erty tax law with respect to the 2024-2025 assessment rolls for a
portion of the 2024-2025 school taxes and a portion of the 2025 general
taxes for the parcel conveyed to such organization located at 109
Stewart Ave, town of Oyster Bay, county of Nassau, in the hamlet of
Hicksville, New York, otherwise known as Nassau County parcel ID section
45 block 331 lot 40. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as
if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
for such roll.
If satisfied that such organization should otherwise be entitled to
such exemption if such organization had filed an application for
exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
approval by the Nassau county legislature, may make appropriate
correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such
organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax 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.
ยง 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
