AN ACT authorizing the Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center to file 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 Islip, county of Suffolk, is hereby author-
3 ized to accept from the Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center, an
4 application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section
5 420-a of the real property tax law with respect to the 2019-2020 assess-
6 ment roll, for the parcel owned by such organization, with such parcel
7 being located at 1111 Montauk Highway, in the hamlet of West Islip, town
8 of Islip, county of Suffolk, otherwise known as Suffolk county tax map
9 number 474.1-2-1. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if
10 it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
11 for such roll.
12 If satisfied that such non-profit organization would otherwise be
13 entitled to such exemption if such organization had filed an application
14 for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
15 approval by the town board of Islip, may grant exemption from all taxa-
16 tion and make appropriate corrections to the subject roll. If such
17 exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any
18 tax with respect to the subject roll, the applicable governing body or
19 tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of
20 the taxes paid, along with any fines or penalties paid, and cancel any
21 taxes, fines, penalties, interest, or tax liens remaining 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.
