                                          6481
 
                    IN SENATE
 
                                    January 29, 2014
                                       ___________
 
        Introduced  by  Sen.  HANNON -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
          printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
 
        AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau  to  accept  an
          application  for  exemption  from  real property taxes from the Living
          Faith Christian Church for a certain parcel of land  in  the  town  of
          Oyster Bay
 

          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  the Living Faith Christian Church an application for exemption from real
     4  property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax  law
     5  for  a  portion  of  the  2011-2012 assessment roll and a portion of the
     6  2012-2013 assessment roll for the parcel located in the town  of  Oyster
     7  Bay  at 35 Hempstead Turnpike, Farmingdale, otherwise known as:  section
     8  49, block 249, lot 51.
     9    If accepted, such application shall be reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
    10  received  on  or  before  the  taxable status dates established for such
    11  rolls. If satisfied that such church would otherwise be entitled to such

    12  exemption if such church had filed an application for exemption  by  the
    13  appropriate  taxable  status  dates,  the assessor, upon approval of the
    14  Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from  from  all  taxation
    15  and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such exemption
    16  is  granted  and  such  church  therefore  shall  have paid any tax with
    17  respect to the subject rolls, 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.
