Law Section:: Real Property Taxation

2021-S8689 - Summary

Authorizes the county of Nassau assessor to accept an application for a real property tax exemption from Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc. with respect to the 2019-2020 assessment roll for a portion of the 2020 general taxes and the 2020-2021 assessment roll for all of the 2020-2021 school taxes and all of the 2021 general taxes.

2021-S8689 - Sponsor Memo

                                 
BILL NUMBER: S8689

SPONSOR: THOMAS
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act in relation to authorizing the county of Nassau assessor to
accept an application for a real property tax exemption from Gurudwara
Shaheedan, Inc.

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

Notwithstands the exemption application deadline for Gurudwara Shahee-
dan, Inc. in order for this not-for-profit religious organization to
file an application with the Nassau County Assessment Office for a
retroactive real property tax exemption.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section one authorizes the Nassau County Assessor to accept an applica-
tion from Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc. for an exemption from real property
taxes pursuant to sections 420-a and 462 of the Real Property Tax law
for the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 assessment rolls.  The bill authorizes

the local legislative body to provide for any corrections to the subject
assessment rolls, canceling any outstanding liens, fines or fees, and/or
providing any refund of taxes paid on such parcel.

Section two provides the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc. is a not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization.
The organization acquired real property in the Town of Hempstead, Nassau
County. Due to the timing of the purchase, they could not apply for an
exemption for the 2020 tax year, and the application issue was not
resolved until February of 2021, thus passing a second taxable status
date. As a result of being unable to file the property tax exemption,
Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc, was liable for school and property taxes
despite their not-for-profit status.  This legislation would allow the
assessor to accept and act on an application for these tax years, giving
Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc. the tax relief they seek.

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

This is a new bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:

None to the state.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
Immediate.

 AN ACT in relation to authorizing  the  county  of  Nassau  assessor  to

   Shaheedan, Inc.
 
   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
 Gurudwara Shaheedan, Inc. an application for exemption from real proper-
 ty taxes pursuant to sections 420-a and 462 of the real property tax law
 with respect to the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 assessment rolls for all  of
 the  2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school taxes, a portion of the 2020 general
 taxes, and all of the 2021 and 2022 general taxes for the  parcel  owned
 by  such  not-for-profit  corporation  located at 1 Center Lane, town of
 Hempstead, county of Nassau, otherwise known as Nassau  county  tax  map
 district section 51 block 111 lot 52. If accepted, the application shall
 be  reviewed  as if it had been received on or before the taxable status
 date established for such assessment rolls.
   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   by  the  Nassau  county  legislature,  may  make  appropriate
 correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted  and  such
 organization,  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.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
