STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 6869 2019-2020 Regular Sessions IN SENATE November 22, 2019 ___________ Introduced by Sen. GAUGHRAN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT in relation to authorizing the assessor of the town of Hunting- ton, county of Suffolk, to accept from the Joshua Baptist Church, an application for exemption from real property taxes 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 town of Huntington, county of Suffolk, is hereby 3 authorized to accept from the Joshua Baptist Church an application for 4 exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real 5 property tax law, with respect to the 2016-2017, 2017-2018, 2018-2019 6 and 2019-2020 assessment rolls, for the parcels owned by such organiza- 7 tion, with such parcels being located at 376 Broadway Greenlawn, in the 8 town of Huntington, county of Suffolk, otherwise known as Suffolk county 9 tax map section 211 block 2 lots 49, 50, 51 and 52. If accepted, the 10 application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before 11 the taxable status date established for such 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 by the Suffolk 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. EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD13811-02-9
