BILL NUMBER:S4975A
Title of bill
An act to authorize to Living Water for Women, Inc. to file an application for a real property tax exemption
Purpose
This legislation would allow a retroactive application for real property tax exemption for Living Water for Women Inc.. for property owned in the City of Glen Cove.
Summary of specific provisions
Section 1 of the bill would authorize the assessor of the City of Glen Cove to accept an application for an exemption from real property taxes as if made pursuant to § 420-a of the Real Property Tax Law. If satisfied that the Living Water for Women Inc. would otherwise have been entitled to said exemption, the assessor, upon approval of the city council may, in his or her sole discretion, provide for a refund or cancel all remaining unpaid taxes, interest, related fines and penalties.
Justification
Living Water's mission is to help formerly incarcerated women so that they may become vital members of the community. Living Water for Women's goal is to establish a structured transitional home for women who have been incarcerated in the Nassau County Jail. It is intended by this bill to ameliorate the hardship that will be suffered by the Living Water for Women Inc., a charitable entity under § 420-a of the Real Property Tax Law, if it is required to pay the property taxes due as described above.
