        Introduced by M. of A. JAFFEE -- read once and referred to the Committee

        AN ACT to authorize the Rock Apostolic 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:
 
     1    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
     2  the assessor of the town  of  Ramapo,  county  of  Rockland,  is  hereby
     3  authorized  to  accept  from the Rock Apostolic Church an application or
     4  renewal application for exemption from real property taxes  pursuant  to
     5  section  420-a  of  the  real  property  tax  law  for the 2007-2008 and
     6  2008-2009 assessment rolls, for the parcel owned by such  not-for-profit
     7  church which is located at 33 Church Street, village of Spring Valley in
     8  the  town  of  Ramapo,  county  of Rockland, otherwise known as Rockland
     9  county tax map, section 57.39, block 1, lot 52.  If accepted, the appli-
    10  cation or renewal application shall  be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been

    11  received  on  or  before  the  taxable  status date established for such
    12  rolls.
    13    If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be
    14  entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed
    15  an  application  or renewal application for exemption by the appropriate
    16  taxable status date, the assessor, upon  approval  by  the  Ramapo  town
    17  board,  may  make  appropriate  correction to the subject rolls. If such
    18  exemption is granted and such organization, therefore, shall  have  paid
    19  any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the applicable governing body
    20  or tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of
    21  those  taxes  paid  and  cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or
    22  interest remaining unpaid.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
