     4  Inc.,  applications  for  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to
     5  section 420-b of the real property tax law for the 2009 assessment  roll
     6  for  the  parcel  located  in  the  village of Goshen at 2001 Route 17M,
     7  otherwise known as section 116, block 2, lot  1.1.    If  accepted,  the
     8  applications shall be reviewed as if they had been received on or before

     9  the taxable status date established for such roll.
    10    If  satisfied  that Occupations, Inc.   would otherwise be entitled to
    11  such exemption if it had acquired such property and  filed  applications
