        AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the town  of  Hempstead,  county  of
          Nassau,  to  accept  from  Mercy  Medical  Center  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   Hempstead, county of Nassau, is hereby
     3  authorized to accept  from  Mercy  Medical  Center  an  application  for
     4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
     5  property  tax  law  for the 2018-2019 school and 2019 general assessment
     6  rolls, for the parcel owned by such organization and located at 30  East
     7  Sunrise  Highway,  in  the  village of Valley Stream, otherwise known as
     8  Nassau county tax map section 39, block 001, lot 0007.  If accepted, the
     9  application shall be reviewed as if it had been received  on  or  before
    10  the  taxable  status dates established for such rolls. If satisfied that
    11  such organization would otherwise be entitled to such exemption if  such
    12  organization  had acquired the subject property and filed an application
    13  for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
    14  approval by the town board, may grant exemption from  all  taxation  and
    15  make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls.  If such exemption is
    16  granted  and  such  organization  therefore shall have paid any tax with
    17  respect to the subject roll, the governing body or tax  department  may,
    18  in  its  sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and
    19  cancel any taxes, fines, penalties,  interest  or  tax  liens  remaining
    20  unpaid.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
