          application for exemption from real property  taxes  from  Bais  Torah
          U'tefillah BTU for certain parcel in the town of Hempstead
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
     1    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
     2  the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
     3  Bais Torah U'tefillah BTU an application for exemption from real proper-
     4  ty taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law for part
     5  of the 2015 general tax roll, the 2015-2016 school and the 2016  general
     6  tax  roll  for  the parcel located in the town of Hempstead at 416 Hemp-
     7  stead Avenue, West Hempstead, otherwise known as: section 35, block 372,
     8  lot 129. If accepted, such application shall be reviewed as  if  it  had
     9  been received on or before the taxable status dates established for such
    10  rolls.  If satisfied that such non-profit would otherwise be entitled to
    11  such exemption if such non-profit had filed an application for exemption
    12  by the appropriate taxable status dates, the assessor, upon approval  of
    13  the Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from all taxation and
    14  make  appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such exemption is
    15  granted and such non-profit therefore  shall  have  paid  any  tax  with
    16  respect  to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax department may,
    17  in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid  and
    18  cancel  any  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  interest or tax liens remaining
    19  unpaid.
    20    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
