AN ACT to authorize the Rockland Housing Action Coalition, Inc. to  file
  an application for a real property tax exemption

  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 Orangetown, county of  Rockland,  is  hereby
authorized  to  accept  from Rockland Housing Action Coalition, Inc., an
application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant  to  section
420-b  of the real property tax law for the 2007 assessment roll for the
parcel owned by such not-for-profit organization which is located in the
town of Orangetown at 207 Depew Avenue in the village of  Nyack,  other-
wise known as section 65.44, block 2, lot 67. If accepted, such applica-
tion shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxa-
ble status date established for such roll.
  If satisfied that such organization: (i) acquired title to the proper-
ty  for  which  it seeks exemption subsequent to the taxable status date
established for such rolls and prior to the taxable status date for  the
next  ensuing  assessment  rolls and (ii) would otherwise be entitled to
such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
exemption  by  the  appropriate taxable status date, the assessor of the
town of Orangetown, upon approval by the  town  board  of  the  town  of
Orangetown,  may  grant  exemption  from all taxation beginning with the
date of acquisition of the property by such church and make  appropriate
correction to the subject rolls. If exemption is granted and such church
therefore shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the
governing  body  or  tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide
for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel taxes, fines, penalties or
interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
