 AN  ACT  authorizing  the  Congregation  Khal  Mevakshei Hashem, Inc. 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
 Congregation  Khal  Mevakshei Hashem, Inc., an application for exemption
 from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property
 tax  law  with respect to the 2024 assessment roll, and all of 2023-2024
 school taxes for the parcel conveyed to  such  organization,  with  such
 parcel being located at 137 Lawrence Avenue, in the village of Lawrence,
 otherwise  known  as  Nassau  county  tax map section 40, block 90, lots
 14-15.  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 rolls, 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.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
