AN ACT to authorize Greater Five Towns YM & YWHA, Inc. to retroactively
apply for a real property tax exemption for certain property in the
county of Nassau
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 Greater Five Towns YM & YWHA, Inc., an application for exemption from
4 real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax
5 law for a portion of the 2012-2013 assessment roll, the 2013-2014
6 assessment roll, and the 2014-2015 assessment roll for the parcel owned
7 by such not-for-profit entity which is located at 215 Grove Avenue,
8 Cedarhurst, in the town of Hempstead, county of Nassau, otherwise known
9 as Nassau county section 39, block 253, lot 213. If accepted, the
10 application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before
11 the taxable status date established for such rolls.
12 If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise be
13 entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed
14 an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the
15 assessor, upon approval by the Nassau county legislature, may make
16 appropriate correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is grant-
17 ed and such organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax with
18 respect to the subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax
19 department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those
20 taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest
21 remaining unpaid.
22 S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
