THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
2 the assessor of the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, is hereby
3 authorized to accept from Ministerios Sion, Inc. an application for
4 exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
5 property tax law with respect to the 2024 assessment roll for all of the
6 2024 general taxes and all of the 2024 school taxes for the parcel owned
7 by such organization located at 168 Locust Drive, in the hamlet of
8 Mastic Beach, town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, otherwise known as
9 Suffolk county tax map district 0200, section 979.00, block 13.00, lot
10 026.00. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had
11 been received on or before the taxable status date established for such
12 assessment roll.
13 If satisfied that such organization would otherwise be entitled to
14 such exemption if such organization had filed an application for
15 exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
16 approval by the Brookhaven town board, may make appropriate correction
17 to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization,
18 therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the
19 applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
20 provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel those taxes,
21 fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
22 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
