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 is hereby authorized to accept from
3 Cong. K'hal Yereim of Woodridge, a not-for-profit organization, an
4 application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section
5 420-a of the real property tax law for the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018

7 hamlet of Monsey in the town of Ramapo located at 100 College Road,
8 otherwise known as Rockland county tax map section 49.18, block 1, lot
9 2. If accepted, such application shall be reviewed as if it had been
10 received on or before the taxable status dates established for such
11 rolls.
12 If satisfied that such non-profit would otherwise be entitled to such
13 exemption if such non-profit had filed an application for exemption by
14 the appropriate taxable status dates, the assessor, upon approval of the
15 town board of Ramapo, may grant exemption from all taxation and make
16 appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such exemption is
17 granted and such non-profit therefor shall have paid any tax with
18 respect to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax department may,
19 in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and
20 cancel any taxes, fines, penalties, interest or tax liens remaining
21 unpaid.
22 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
