Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, 2 the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from 3 the First Reformed Church of Jamaica an application for exemption from 4 real property taxes pursuant to sections 420-a and 462 of the real prop- 5 erty tax law for all the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 school taxes, and all 6 of the 2016, 2017 and 2018 general taxes for the parcel, located in the 7 town of Hempstead at 880 Ossipee Court, West Hempstead, otherwise known 8 as: section 35, block 650, lot 6. If accepted, such application shall be 9 reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable status 10 dates established for such rolls.

If such exemption is granted and such church therefore 16 shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the governing 17 body or tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the 18 refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penalties, 19 interest or tax liens remaining unpaid. 20 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately. EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD08494-09-9
