BILL NUMBER:S7809
Title of bill
An act authorizing the Long Island Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Health and Human Services Network, Inc., to file an application for retroactive tax exempt status
Purpose
To grant the town assessor for the town of Brookhaven the authority to exempt the Long Island Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Health and Human Services Network, Inc. from liability for payment of real property taxes due on the 2013-2014 assessment roll.
Summary of provisions
Section One authorizes the assessor of the town of Brookhaven to accept an application from the Long Island Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Health and Human Services Network, Inc., for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to Section 462 of the real property law for the assessment roll as completed in 2013-2014. Upon satisfaction that the organization, would have otherwise been entitled to exemption, had the property been used by an officiating clergyman for residential purposes, and had said application been filed in a timely manner, the assessor may grant this exemption from all taxation with respect to the 2013-2014 roll. If the exemption is granted, the organization may be refunded any taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penalties and interest remaining unpaid.
Section Two is the effective date.
Justification
The Long Island Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Health and Human Services Network, Inc., is a not for profit, occupying a building located at 7 Crossway Blvd., Patchogue, NY 11772. The organization purchased this property on April 8, 2014, missing the taxable status by which an application for exemption from real properties must be filed. This legislation would allow the organization the ability to file a late application for forgiveness from property taxes due on the 2013-2014 roll.
