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 Gurdwara Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib, Inc. an application for exemption from
4 real property taxes pursuant to section 430 of the real property tax law
5 with respect to the 2023 assessment roll for all of the 2023 general
6 taxes for the parcel owned by such corporation located at 2000 Hillside
7 Avenue, village of New Hyde Park, town of Hempstead, county of Nassau,

9 lots 607, 608 and 609. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as
10 if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
11 for such assessment 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, including acknowledge-
15 ment of the letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated September 19,

17 assessor, upon approval by the Nassau county legislature, may make
18 appropriate correction to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted
19 and such organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect
20 to the subject roll, the applicable governing body or tax department
21 may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid
22 and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining
23 unpaid.
