          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-

     1    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
     2  the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
     3  Gurdwara Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib, Inc. an application for exemption from
     4  real  property  taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax
     5  law with respect to the 2022 and 2023 assessment rolls for  all  of  the
     6  2022  and  2023 general taxes, and all of the 2022 and 2023 school taxes
     7  for the parcel owned  by  such  corporation  located  at  2000  Hillside
     8  Avenue,  village  of New Hyde Park, town of Hempstead, county of Nassau,
     9  otherwise known as Nassau county tax map district section 8 block  21114
    10  lots 607, 608 and 609. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as
    11  if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
    12  for such assessment roll.
    13    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
    14  such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
    15  exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, including acknowledge-
    16  ment of the letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated September 19,
    17  2022  granting  such organization exemption from federal income tax, the
    18  assessor, upon approval by  the  Nassau  county  legislature,  may  make
    19  appropriate correction to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted
    20  and  such  organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect
    21  to the subject roll, the applicable governing  body  or  tax  department
    22  may,  in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid
    23  and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens  or  interest  remaining
    24  unpaid.
    25    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
