        Introduced  by  Sen.  KAPLAN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
          printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
 
        AN ACT to authorize Divya Jyoti Jagrati Kendra 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 county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
     3  Divya Jyoti Jagrati Kendra, a not-for-profit organization,  an  applica-
     4  tion for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of
     5  the  real property tax law, with respect to part of the 2018-2019 school
     6  tax year, the 2019-2020 school tax year, the 2020-2021 school  tax  year
     7  and  the  2019  general tax year, the 2020 general tax year and the 2021
     8  general tax year, for the parcel owned by such not-for-profit  organiza-
     9  tion,  with  such  parcel  being located at 327 Jericho Turnpike, in the
    10  village of Old Westbury, county of Nassau, otherwise  known  as  Section
    11  17,  Block  16, Lot 8. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as
    12  if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
    13  for such rolls.
    14    If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be
    15  entitled to such exemption if such organization had filed an application
    16  for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
    17  approval  by the Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from all
    18  taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If  such
    19  exemption  is  granted  and such not-for-profit organization, therefore,
    20  shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the  applica-
    21  ble  governing  body  or  tax  department  may,  in its sole discretion,
    22  provide for the refund of those  taxes  paid  and  cancel  those  taxes,
    23  fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
    24    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
