 AN ACT to authorize Church of God and Saints of Christ to file an appli-
   cation for certain real property tax exemptions in the City of Albany
 
   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 City of Albany is hereby authorized to accept from
 Church of God and Saints of Christ an  application  for  exemption  from
 real  property  taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax
 law for the 2018 and 2019 assessment roll, for two  parcels  located  in
 the  City  of  Albany,  the  first at 151 Jay Street, otherwise known as
 Albany county tax map section 76.24, block 6, lot 81 and the  second  at
 153  Jay Street, otherwise known as Albany county tax map section 76.24,
 block 6, lot 82. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it
 had been received on or before the taxable status dates established  for
 such rolls.
   If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
 such exemption if such organization had acquired  the  subject  property
 and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
 date,  the assessor, upon approval by the City of Albany Common Council,
 may grant exemption from all taxation and make  appropriate  corrections
 to  the subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization
 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 and cancel any taxes,  fines,  penal-
 ties, interest, or tax liens remaining unpaid.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
 
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
