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 for the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept

5 property tax law for the 2012-2013 assessment roll for the parcel owned

10 received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.

12 such exemption had such organization owned the aforesaid property and
13 had filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
14 date, the assessor for the county of Nassau, may grant exemption from
15 taxation, and make appropriate corrections to the subject roll. If such
16 exemption is granted and such organization shall have paid any tax with
17 respect to the subject roll, the applicable governing body or tax
18 department may, in its discretion, provide for the refund of taxes paid
19 and cancel taxes, fines, penalties and interest remaining unpaid.
