STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 5965 2017-2018 Regular Sessions IN SENATE May 9, 2017 ___________ Introduced by Sen. KAMINSKY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government AN ACT in relation to permitting the Holy Order of Cherubim and Seraphim Missionary Church 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 any other provision of law to the contrary, 2 the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from 3 the Holy Order of Cherubim and Seraphim Missionary Church, an applica- 4 tion for exemptions from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a 5 of the real property tax law for the 2016-2017 assessment roll with 6 respect to the 2017 general tax and the 2016-2017 school tax for the 7 parcel owned by such not-for-profit corporation which is located at 588 8 Meacham Avenue, Elmont, in the town of Hempstead, county of Nassau. If 9 accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had been received 10 on or before the taxable status date established for such rolls. If 11 satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise be enti- 12 tled to such exemptions if such not-for-profit organization had filed an 13 application for exemptions by the appropriate taxable status dates, the 14 assessor, upon approval by the Nassau county legislature may make appro- 15 priate correction to the subject rolls. If such exemptions are granted 16 and such organization, therefore, shall have paid any taxes with respect 17 to the subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax department 18 may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid 19 and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest remaining 20 unpaid. 21 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately. EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD11285-01-7
