        Introduced  by  Sen.  BROOKS -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
          printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules
        AN ACT to authorize the North Bellmore Fire District to receive retroac-
          tive real property tax exempt status
          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  North Bellmore Fire District an application for exemption from real
     4  property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property  tax  law,
     5  with  respect  to  the  2015-2016  assessment  roll for a portion of the
     6  2015-2016 school taxes and all of the 2016 general taxes, for the parcel
     7  conveyed to such organization located at 815 Newbridge Road, North Bell-
     8  more, town of Hempstead, county of Nassau,  otherwise  known  as  Nassau
     9  county  parcel  ID section 51 block 75 lot 54. If accepted, the applica-
    10  tion shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxa-
    11  ble status date established for such roll.
    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   by  the  Nassau  county  legislature,  may  make  appropriate
    16  correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted  and  such
    17  organization,  therefore,  shall  have  paid any tax with respect to the
    18  subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax department  may,  in
    19  its  sole  discretion,  provide  for  the refund of those taxes paid and
    20  cancel those  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  liens  or  interest  remaining
    21  unpaid.
    22    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
