AN ACT authorizing the Bais Tefila of Inwood to receive retroactive real
property tax exempt status
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 Bais Tefila of Inwood, an application for exemption from real property
4 taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law with
5 respect to the 2019-2020 assessment roll for a portion of the 2019
6 general taxes and all of the 2020 general taxes, and all of the
7 2019-2020 school taxes for the parcel conveyed to such organization,
8 with such parcel being located at 259 Doughty Blvd, in the town of Hemp-
9 stead, otherwise known as Nassau county tax map section 40, block 163,
10 lot 216. 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 Nassau county legislature, may
17 grant exemption from all taxation and make appropriate corrections to
18 the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such organization
19 therefore shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the
20 governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide
21 for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penal-
22 ties, interest or tax liens remaining unpaid.
23 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
