          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, an application for exemption from real property
     4  taxes pursuant to section 420-a  of  the  real  property  tax  law  with
     5  respect  to  a portion of the 2020-2021 school taxes and all of the 2021
     6  general taxes for the parcel conveyed to such  organization,  with  such
     7  parcel  being  located  at  401  Hempstead Avenue, in the hamlet of West
     8  Hempstead, in the town of Hempstead, otherwise known  as  Nassau  county
     9  tax  map  section  35,  block 340, lot 5.   If accepted, the application
    10  shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or  before  the  taxable
    11  status dates established for such rolls.
    12    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
    13  such exemption if such organization had acquired  the  subject  property
    14  and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
    15  date, the assessor, upon approval by the town board, may grant exemption
    16  from all taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls.
    17  If  such exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have
    18  paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the governing body or tax
    19  department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of  those
    20  taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penalties, interest or tax liens
    21  remaining unpaid.
    22    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
