AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the town of Hempstead, county of
Nassau, to accept from Mercy Medical Center 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 Hempstead, county of Nassau, is hereby
3 authorized to accept from Mercy Medical Center an application for
4 exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
5 property tax law for the 2018-2019 school and 2019 general assessment
6 rolls, for the parcel owned by such organization and located at 30 East
7 Sunrise Highway, in the village of Valley Stream, otherwise known as
8 Nassau county tax map section 39, block 001, lot 0007. If accepted, the
9 application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before
10 the taxable status dates established for such rolls. If satisfied that
11 such organization would otherwise be entitled to such exemption if such
12 organization had acquired the subject property and filed an application
13 for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
14 approval by the town board, may grant exemption from all taxation and
15 make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such exemption is
16 granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any tax with
17 respect to the subject roll, 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.
EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
[] is old law to be omitted.
