        AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau  to  accept  an
          application  for exemption from real property tax from the Nassau Land
          Trust, Inc.  for a certain parcel of land located in the town of North
          Hempstead
 
          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  Nassau  Land  Trust,  Inc.   an application for exemption from real
     4  property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax  law
     5  for  the  2009-2010  assessment roll, the 2010-2011 assessment roll, and
     6  the 2011-2012 assessment roll for the parcel  located  in  the  town  of
     7  North  Hempstead  at  Hoffstofs  Lane,  Sands Point, otherwise known as:

     8  section 4, block B, lots 226, 227.
     9    If accepted, the application shall be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
    10  received  on  or  before  the  taxable  status date established for such
    11  rolls.
    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,  the  assessor,  upon
    15  approval  of the Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from all
    16  taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If  such
    17  exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any
    18  tax with respect to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax depart-
    19  ment  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes
    20  paid and cancel any taxes,  fines,  penalties,  interest  or  tax  liens
    21  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.
