Bill > S08961

This bill authorizes the Merrick Hook & Ladder Co. 1, a fire company, to receive retroactive real property tax exempt status for its property located at 1893 Oakwood Ave in Merrick, Nassau County, even though they may have missed the usual deadline for applying. This means that the Nassau County assessor can accept their application for exemption from real property taxes for the 2025-2026 school and general tax rolls as if it were filed on time. If the assessor approves the application, and the Nassau County Legislature also agrees, any taxes already paid for that period could be refunded, and any outstanding taxes, fines, or penalties related to this property could be canceled. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
