AN ACT authorizing the Mount Olive Pentecostal Church of Faith to file
an application for retroactive real property tax exemption
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 Brookhaven in the county of Suffolk is here-
3 by authorized to accept from Mount Olive Pentecostal Church of Faith,
4 Inc., an application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to
5 section 420-a of the real property tax law with respect to the
6 2019--2020 assessment roll for the parcels owned by such organization,
7 with such parcels being located at 17 Sander Court, in the hamlet of
8 Middle Island, town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, otherwise known as
9 Suffolk county tax map district 0200, section 504.00, block 01.00, lot
10 003.004. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had
11 been received on or before the taxable status dates established for such
12 rolls.
13 If satisfied that such organization would otherwise be entitled to
14 such exemption if such organization had acquired the subject property
15 and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
16 date, the assessor, upon approval by the town board, may grant exemption
17 from all taxation beginning on the date of the conveyance of such parcel
18 to such organization, and make appropriate corrections to the subject
19 rolls. If such exemption is granted and such organization therefore
20 shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the governing
21 body or tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the
22 refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penalties,
23 interest or tax liens remaining unpaid.
24 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
