AN ACT to authorize the East Rockaway fire department  to  retroactively
  apply  for  a  real property tax exemption for certain property in the
  village of East Rockaway, town of Hempstead, county of Nassau

  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  East  Rockaway   fire department, an application for exemption from
real property taxes pursuant to section 406 of the real property tax law
for a portion of the 2012-2013 assessment roll and the 2013-2014 assess-
ment roll for the parcel owned by such municipal fire  department  which
is  located  at  15 and 23 Front Street in the village of East Rockaway,
town of Hempstead, county of Nassau, otherwise known  by  Nassau  county
parcel  ID,  section  42, block 85, lots 311, 317, 318. If accepted, the
application shall be reviewed as if it had been received  on  or  before
the taxable status date established for such rolls.
  If  satisfied  that  such municipal fire department would otherwise be
entitled to such exemption if the  East  Rockaway  fire  department  had
filed  an  application  for  exemption by the appropriate taxable status
date, the assessor, upon approval by the Nassau county legislature,  may
make  appropriate  correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is
granted and such fire department, therefore, shall  have  paid  any  tax
with  respect to the subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax
department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of  those
taxes  paid  and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens or interest
remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
