BILL NUMBER:S5031A
Title of bill
An act to authorize the Torah OHR Hebrew Academy to retroactively apply for real property tax exemptions for certain properties in the village of Great Neck, county of Nassau
Purpose
To authorize the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept from the Torah OHR Hebrew Academy applications for exemptions from real property taxes for the 2014-2015 assessment roll with respect to the schools taxes, part of the 2014 assessment roll with respect to the general taxes and the 2015 assessment roll with respect to the general taxes for certain properties owned by such not-for-profit academy.
Summary of provisions
Section one authorizes the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept from the Torah OHR Hebrew Academy applications for exemptions from real property taxes for the 2014-2015 assessment roll with respect to the school taxes, part of the 2014 assessment roll with respect to the general taxes and the 2015 assessment roll with respect to the general taxes for the parcel owned by such not-for-profit academy at 4 Fairview Avenue, village of Great Neck, town of North Hempstead, county of Nassau.
It also authorizes the assessor of the county of Nassau to accept from the Torah OHR Hebrew Academy applications for exemptions from real property taxes for the 2014-2015 assessment roll with respect to school taxes and the 2015 assessment roll with respect to the general taxes for the parcel owned by such not-for-profit academy at 581 Middle Neck Road, village of Great Neck, town of North Hempstead, county of Nassau.
If accepted, the applications shall be reviewed as if they had been received on or before the taxable status date established for such rolls. The Nassau County Legislature or assessor may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest remaining unpaid.
Section two is the effective date.
Justification
Torah OHR Hebrew Academy missed the taxable status deadline due to the timing of the sale and closing of both pieces of property. Existing law authorizes tax exemptions to be granted after the taxable status date has passed if a bill is chaptered authorizing an assessor to accept a late application.
