AN ACT to authorize the Rock Apostolic Church to retroactively apply for
  a real property tax exemption for certain  property  in  the  town  of
  Ramapo, county of Rockland

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the assessor of the town  of  Ramapo,  county  of  Rockland,  is  hereby
authorized  to  accept  from the Rock Apostolic Church an application or
renewal application for exemption from real property taxes  pursuant  to
section  420-a  of  the  real  property  tax  law  for the 2007-2008 and
2008-2009 assessment rolls, for the parcel owned by such  not-for-profit
church which is located at 33 Church Street, village of Spring Valley in
the  town  of  Ramapo,  county  of Rockland, otherwise known as Rockland
county tax map, section 57.39, block 1, lot 52.  If accepted, the appli-
cation or renewal application shall  be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
received  on  or  before  the  taxable  status date established for such
rolls.
  If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be
entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed
an  application  or renewal application for exemption by the appropriate
taxable status date, the assessor, upon  approval  by  the  Ramapo  town
board,  may  make  appropriate  correction to the subject rolls. If such
exemption is granted and such organization, therefore, shall  have  paid
any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the applicable governing body
or tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of
those  taxes  paid  and  cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or
interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
