SECTION 233-B
Payment in lieu of taxes for property acquired for park or recreational purposes
County (CNT) CHAPTER 11, ARTICLE 5
* § 233-b. Payment in lieu of taxes for property acquired for park or
recreational purposes. The county of Nassau having acquired certain
property for park or recreational purposes in the Lido Beach-Point
Lookout area shall have the power and authority with respect to such
property, to pay or transfer out of any county funds available to it,
annual sums in lieu of taxes to the affected taxing jurisdictions, in
order that none of such taxing jurisdiction shall suffer an inequitable
loss of revenue by virtue of such park or recreational program; provided
further, that the amount so paid or transferred for any year shall not
exceed the sum last levied for the benefit of such taxing jurisdiction
as an annual tax on such property prior to the time of its acquisition
for such purpose or purposes.

As used in this section, the term "taxing jurisdiction" means any
municipal corporation or district corporation, including any school
district or any special district, having the power to levy and collect
taxes and benefit assessments upon real property in the Lido Beach-Point
Lookout area, or in whose behalf such taxes or benefit assessments may
be levied or collected.
