                                      June 8, 2016
                                       ___________
        Introduced  by  COMMITTEE ON RULES -- (at request of M. of A. Lavine) --
          read once and referred to the Committee on Real Property Taxation
        AN ACT in relation to permitting the Islamic Center of  Long  Island  to
          file an application for certain real property tax exemptions
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
     1    Section 1. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law, the asses-
     2  sor of the county of Nassau is hereby  authorized  to  accept  from  the
     3  Islamic  Center  of  Long Island, an application for exemption from real
     4  property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax  law
     5  for the 2013-2014, 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 assessment rolls with respect
     6  to  a  portion of the 2014, 2015 and 2016 general tax and the 2013-2014,
     7  2014-2015 and 2015-2016 school tax for the parcel owned by such not-for-
     8  profit corporation which is located at 14 Talbot Drive, village of West-
     9  bury, town of North Hempstead, county  of  Nassau,  otherwise  known  as
    10  Nassau  county  tax map section 11, block 376, lot 16.  If accepted, the
    11  application shall be reviewed as if it had been received  on  or  before
    12  the  taxable  status  date established for such rolls. If satisfied that
    13  such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be  entitled  to  such
    14  exemptions  if such not-for-profit organization had filed an application
    15  for exemption by the appropriate taxable  status  dates,  the  assessor,
    16  upon  approval  by  the  Nassau  county legislature may make appropriate
    17  correction to the subject rolls. If such exemptions are granted and such
    18  organization, therefore, shall have paid any taxes with respect  to  the
    19  subject  rolls,  the applicable governing body or tax department may, in
    20  its sole discretion, provide for the refund  of  those  taxes  paid  and
    21  cancel  those  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  liens  or  interest remaining
    22  unpaid.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
