BILL NUMBER:S4264C
Title of bill
An act to authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept applications for exemption from real property tax from Madraigos, Inc. for certain parcels of land located in the town of Hempstead
Summary of provisions
This bill would authorize and direct the Assessor of the County of Nassau to accept an application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to Section 420-a of the Real Property Tax Law for certain taxes owed by Madraigos, Inc.
Justification
Madraigos, Inc. is a not-for-profit entity that owns properties in Woodmere, NY. These properties are used as a referral agency, a youth recreation center, and provides case management and support for at-risk teens within the Jewish Orthodox community in an educational and religious setting, as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). These properties are located at 936 Broadway, Woodmere, NY 11598.
This legislation would provide Madraigos, Inc. with an exemption from real property taxes pursuant to Section 420-a of the Real Property Tax Law with respect to the general tax for the 2011 assessment roll and the school taxes for the 2010-2011 school tax roll. In addition, it would eliminate part of the 2009-2010 school tax roll, and part of the general tax for the 2010 assessment roll. Unfortunately, the organization could not file timely as it had acquired the property after the filing date for the 2010 tax year. As a result, Madraigos, Inc. has been liable for over a year's worth of property taxes despite its not-for-profit status. The organization has filed the application for exemption from real property in a timely manner, and been approved for exemption on the 2011-2012 tax rolls. The association does not have available funds to pay the assessment of real property taxes for the year in question. In order to preserve the community's organization for the use by its residents, Madraigos, Inc. needs the requested relief from real property taxes.
