       AN  ACT to authorize Muslims on Long Island, Inc. to retroactively apply
         for real property tax exemptions for certain properties  in  Bethpage,

         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  Muslims on Long Island, Inc. applications or  renewal  applications  for
    4  exemptions  from  real  property  taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the
    5  real property tax law for part of the  2010-2011  assessment  roll  with
    6  respect  to  a  portion  of the 2011 general taxes and for the 2011-2012
    7  assessment roll, with respect to a portion of the 2011-2012 school taxes
    8  and the 2012 general taxes for the parcel owned by  such  not-for-profit
    9  corporation  which  is  located  at 300 Central Avenue, Bethpage, in the
   10  town of Oyster Bay, county of Nassau, otherwise known as on  the  Nassau
   11  county  land  and  tax map as section 46, block 112, lot 9. If accepted,
   12  the applications or renewal applications shall be reviewed  as  if  they
   13  had  been  received on or before the taxable status date established for
   14  such roll.
   15    If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be
   16  entitled  to  such  exemptions  if  such not-for-profit organization had
   17  filed applications or renewal applications for exemptions by the  appro-
   18  priate  taxable  status  date, the assessor, upon approval by the Nassau
   19  county legislature, may make appropriate correction to the subject roll.
   20  If such exemptions are granted and such organization,  therefore,  shall
   21  have  paid  any  taxes  with respect to the subject roll, the applicable
   22  governing body or tax department may, in its  sole  discretion,  provide
   23  for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penal-
   24  ties, liens, or interest remaining unpaid.
   25    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
