Introduced by COMMITTEE ON RULES -- (at request of M. of A. Burdick) --
read once and referred to the Committee on Real Property Taxation
AN ACT in relation to authorizing the Bedford Hills Fire District to
file an application for exemption from school taxes and real property
taxes
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 town of Bedford, county of Westchester, is hereby
authorized to accept from the Bedford Hills Fire District, an applica-
tion for exemption from school taxes and real property taxes pursuant to
section 464 of the real property tax law with respect to the 2022-2023
assessment roll, for the parcels owned by such organization, with such
parcels being located at 352 Bedford Road, in the town of Bedford, coun-
ty of Westchester, otherwise known as Westchester county tax map,
section 60.14, block 5, lot 83.
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 by the
town of Bedford governing board, 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 applicable governing body or tax
department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of the
taxes paid, along with any fines or penalties paid, and cancel any
taxes, fines, penalties, interest, or tax liens remaining unpaid.
ยง 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
