AN ACT to authorize the St. James  Mar  Thoma  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 St. James Mar Thoma 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  2009  assessment
rolls,  for  the  parcel  owned  by  such not-for-profit church which is
located at 526 Route 306, village of Suffern  in  the  town  of  Ramapo,
county  of Rockland, otherwise known as Rockland county tax map, section
47.18, block 3, lot 1.  If accepted, the application or renewal applica-
tion shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxa-
ble 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.

AN ACT to authorize the St. James Mar Thoma Church of Rockland,  Inc  to
  file  an  application  for  exemption  from  real property taxes for a
  certain parcel of land located in the town of Ramapo

  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 is hereby authorized to accept from
the St. James Mar Thoma Church of  Rockland,  Inc.  an  application  for
exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
property tax law for the 2009 assessment roll, for the parcel located in
the town of Ramapo at 41 Fourth Street otherwise known as section 47.18,
block  3, lot 1. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it
had been received on or before the taxable status date  established  for
such roll.
  If  satisfied that such church: (i) acquired title to the property for
which it seeks exemption subsequent to the taxable  status  date  estab-
lished  for  such roll and prior to the taxable status date for the next
ensuing assessment roll and (ii) would otherwise  be  entitled  to  such
exemption  if  such church had filed an application for exemption by the
appropriate taxable status date, the assessor of  the  town  of  Ramapo,
upon  approval  by the town board of such town, 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 roll. If
exemption is granted and such church therefore shall have paid  any  tax
with  respect  to the subject roll, the governing body or tax department
may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid
