BILL NUMBER: S6931

SPONSOR: CANZONERI-FITZPATRICK
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act authorizing the assessor of the city of Long Beach, county of
Nassau, to accept from New Beth El, Inc. an application for exemption
from real property taxes

 
PURPOSE:

To authorize the County of Nassau to accept a retroactive application
for a real property tax exemption from New Beth El, Inc.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Authorizes the city of Long Beach to accept an application
from New Beth El, Inc. for a retroactive exemption from real property
tax for the 2019/20 assessment 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
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.

Section 2: Provides the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

New Beth El, Inc. is a not-for-profit tax-exempt organization that owns
property located at 270 Lindell Boulevard in Long Beach, New York,
Nassau County and at 570 West Walnut Street in Long Beach, New York,
Nassau County. The properties have been filing as non-profit entities
for many decades. Unfortunately, the properties were incorrectly levied
in 2019-2020 due to a lack of administrative staff to file the tax
exemption forms. In order to preserve the community's organization for
the use of its residents, New Beth El needs the requested relief from
real property taxes.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2022: A.10060 - referred to Real Property Taxation

2020: A10637 - referred to Real Property Taxation

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None to the state.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately.

   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 city of Long Beach,  county  of  Nassau,  is  hereby
 authorized  to  accept  from  New  Beth  El, Inc., an application for an
 exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real

 parcel owned by such organization, with such parcel being located at  70
 West  Beech  Street,  city  of  Long  Beach, county of Nassau, parcel ID
 59-25-11. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as  if  it  had
 been  received on or before the taxable status date established for such

 such  exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application for
 exemption by the appropriate taxable status  date,  the  assessor,  upon
 approval  by  the city council of Long Beach, county of Nassau, may make
 appropriate correction to the subject roll. If such exemption is  grant-

 respect to the subject rolls,  the  applicable  governing  body  or  tax
 department  may, at its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those
 taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens  or  interest
