BILL NUMBER:S6812A
Title of bill
An act to authorize Hands Across Long Island, Inc. to retroactively apply for a real property tax exemption for certain property in the village of Lynbrook, town of Hempstead, county of Nassau
Purpose
To authorize Hands Across Long Island, Inc. to apply for a retroactive real property tax exemption for a certain parcel in the village of Lynbrook, in Nassau County.
Summary of provisions
Section 1. The assessor of Nassau County is authorized to accept an application for real property tax exemption from Hands Across Long Island, Inc. pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established.
Section 2 is the effective date.
Justification
Hands Across Long Island is a multi-service organization managed and operated by, and for, psychiatric survivors. According to their website, Hands Across Long Island is the largest and most successful peer-run, multi-service mental health organization in New York State, helping over 3,500 consumers each year. This legislation would alleviate the financial strain on Hands Across Long Island by allowing the not-for-profit to apply for a real property tax exemption and thus allocate those monies toward better serving the community.
