BILL NUMBER:S7513
Title of bill
An act to authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept an application for exemption from real property taxes from Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, Inc. for a certain parcel of land located in the town of Hempstead
Purpose
To authorize Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch to apply for a retroactive real property tax exemption for a parcel in Nassau County.
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 the Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch.
Justification
Merkos L'Inyonie Chinuch, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization, and the educational arm of the world wide Chabad-Lubavitch organization. Merkos L'Inyonie Chinuch purchased the property known as 3000 Lawson Blvd., in Oceanside, NY, on May 15, 2007 for the purpose of moving its religious book storage, warehousing and shipping operation.
On or before January 2, 2008, Merkos L'Inyonie Chinuch made an application to the Nassau County Department of Assessment for real property tax exemption for the premises located at 3000 Lawson Blvd., Oceanside, N.Y., but the application was denied. The basis of the denial by the Nassau County Assessor's Office was technical in nature. Merkos L'Inyonie Chinuch qualifies for tax purposes for the tax exempt status necessary to receive the benefits of the real property tax exemption retroactively as well as moving forward.
