   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
 Ray  of Hope, Inc. an application for exemption from real property taxes
 pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law for the 2026-2027
 assessment roll for all of the 2026-2027 school taxes  and  all  of  the
 2026  general taxes for the parcel conveyed to such organization located

 map  section  36, Block 421, lot 124. 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 would otherwise be entitled to
 such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
 exemption  by  the  appropriate  taxable  status date, the Nassau county
 assessor, 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.
