  Introduced by M. of A. HOOPER -- read once and referred to the Committee

  AN  ACT  to  authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept an
    application for exemption from real property  tax  from  the  Epilepsy
    Foundation  of Long Island, Inc.  for a certain parcel of land located
    in the town of Hempstead

    THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
  BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
  the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
  the  Epilepsy  Foundation  of  Long  Island,  Inc.    an application for
  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
  property tax law for a portion of the 2011-2012 assessment roll for that
  portion of the parcel located in the town of Hempstead at 1500 Hempstead
  Turnpike, East Meadow, otherwise known as: section 50,  block  340,  lot
  452, which is not leased to another party.
    If  accepted,  the  application  shall  be  reviewed as if it had been
  received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
  such  exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application for
  exemption by the appropriate taxable status  date,  the  assessor,  upon
  approval  of the Nassau county legislature, may grant exemption from all
  taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject roll.  If  such
  exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any
  tax  with respect to the subject roll, the governing body or tax depart-
  ment may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those  taxes
  paid  and  cancel  any  taxes,  fines,  penalties, interest or tax liens
  remaining unpaid.
    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
