 AN ACT in relation to the extension of the 2020 and 2021 assessment roll
   and the renewal of exemptions received on the 2019 assessment roll for
   certain educational institutions; and providing for the repeal of such
   provisions upon expiration thereof

   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, in the interest
 of  the  health  and  safety of the public due to the novel coronavirus,
 COVID-19 pandemic, every governing body of an assessing unit  and  local
 assessor  shall extend to the 2020 and 2021 assessment roll, the renewal
 of the exemptions received on  the  2019  assessment  roll  pursuant  to
 sections  420-a  and 420-b of the real property tax law, relating to tax
 exemptions for educational  institutions,  and  no  renewal  application
 shall  be  required  of  any  eligible  recipient  who  received  either
 exemption on the 2019 assessment roll in order for such eligible recipi-
 ent to continue receiving such exemption at the same amount received  on
 the  2019  assessment  roll, except as herein provided. Provided however
 that no governing body of  an  assessing  unit  or  local  assessor  may
 require eligible recipients to appear in person to file a renewal appli-
 cation  for  any reason. Additionally, any payments made, under protest,
 due to loss of such exempt status under sections 420-a and 420-b of  the
 real  property  tax law shall be refunded. Provided, however, nothing in
 this act shall create any right to an exemption under sections 420-a  or
 420-b of the real property tax law for an otherwise ineligible applicant
 upon the purchase of a previously exempt property.
   ยง  2.  This  act  shall take effect immediately and shall be deemed to
 have been in full force and effect on and after March 7, 2020; provided,
 however that the provisions of this  act  shall  expire  and  be  deemed
 repealed January 1, 2022.
