       Introduced  by  Sen.  HANNON -- read twice and ordered printed, and when

       AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau  to  accept  an
         application  for  exemption  from  real  property tax from the Calvary
         Tabernacle for a certain parcel of land located in the town  of  Hemp-
         stead
         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 Calvary Tabernacle an application for exemption from  real  property
    4  taxes  pursuant  to  section  420-a  of  the real property tax law for a
    5  portion of the 2009-2010 assessment roll, for a portion of the 2010-2011
    6  assessment roll, and for a portion of the 2011-2012 assessment roll  for
    7  the parcel located in the town of Hempstead at 253A Fulton Avenue, Hemp-
    8  stead, otherwise known as: section 34, block 338, lot 6.
    9    If  accepted,  the  application  shall  be  reviewed as if it had been
   10  received on or before the  taxable  status  date  established  for  such
   11  rolls.
   12    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
   13  such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
   14  exemption  by  the  appropriate  taxable status date, the assessor, upon
   15  approval of the Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from  all
   16  taxation  and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such
   17  exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any
   18  tax with respect to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax depart-
   19  ment may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those  taxes
   20  paid  and  cancel  any  taxes,  fines,  penalties, interest or tax liens
   21  remaining unpaid.
   22    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
        EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
