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 2017-2018 school and the 2018-2019 school and
6 the 2018 and 2019 general assessment rolls, for the parcel owned by such
7 organization and located at 30 East Sunrise Highway, in the village of
8 Valley Stream, otherwise known as Nassau county tax map section 39,
9 block 001, lot 0007. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as
10 if it had been received on or before the taxable status dates estab-
11 lished for such rolls. If satisfied that such organization would other-
12 wise be entitled to such exemption if such organization had acquired the
13 subject property and filed an application for exemption by the appropri-
14 ate taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval by the town board,
15 may grant exemption from all taxation and make appropriate corrections
16 to the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such organiza-
17 tion therefore shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll,
18 the governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
19 provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines,
20 penalties, interest or tax liens remaining 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.
