     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  subdivision  2 of section 464 of the real
     5  property tax law, with respect to the 2015-2016 assessment  roll  for  a
     6  portion  of the 2015-2016 school taxes and all of the 2016 general taxes
     7  and a portion of the 2015 general taxes, for the parcel conveyed to such
     8  organization located at 815 Newbridge  Road,  North  Bellmore,  town  of
     9  Hempstead,  county of Nassau, otherwise known as Nassau county parcel ID
    10  section 51 block 75 lot  54.  If  accepted,  the  application  shall  be
    11  reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable status date
    12  established for such roll.
    13    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
    14  such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
    15  exemption  by  the  appropriate  taxable status date, the assessor, upon
    16  approval  by  the  Nassau  county  legislature,  may  make   appropriate
    17  correction  to  the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such
    18  organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax  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.
