AN ACT to authorize Chabad of Stony Brook, Inc. to file an application

the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk
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 Brookhaven, in the county of Suffolk, is
3 hereby authorized to accept from Chabad at Stony Brook, Inc., a not-for-
4 profit organization, an application for exemption from real property
5 taxes pursuant to section 462 of the real property tax law for a portion
6 of the 2017-2018 assessment roll, for the parcel purchased by such
7 organization on September 18, 2017 and located in the town of Brookhaven
8 at 3 Galloway Court, East Setauket, otherwise known as district 0200,
9 section 363.00, block 03.00, lot 001.005. If accepted, the application
10 shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable
11 status date established for such roll.
12 If satisfied that such not-for-profit corporation would otherwise be
13 entitled to such exemption if the organization had filed an application
14 for such exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor
15 of the town of Brookhaven, upon approval by the town board of the town
16 of Brookhaven, may grant exemption from taxation with respect to a
17 portion of the subject roll and make appropriate correction to the
18 subject roll. If the exemption is granted and such not-for-profit corpo-
19 ration shall have paid any tax with regard to the subject roll, the town
20 board of the town of Brookhaven may, in its sole discretion, provide for
21 the refund of those taxes paid and cancel taxes, fines, penalties, liens
22 or interest remaining unpaid.
23 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
