AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the town of Ramapo, county of Rock-
land to accept from Iqra Darul Ehsan, Inc. an application for a real
property exemption
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 Iqra Darul Ehsan, Inc. an application for
4 exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
5 property tax law for the 2012 and 2013 assessment rolls, for the parcel
6 owned by such organization located at 6 Suffern Place, in the village of
7 Suffern within the town of Ramapo, county of Rockland, otherwise known
8 as Rockland county tax map, section 54.36, block 1, lot 3. If accepted,
9 the application shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or
10 before the taxable status date established for such rolls.
11 If satisfied that such organization would otherwise be entitled to
12 such exemption if such organization had acquired the property and filed
13 an application by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor,
14 upon approval by the town board, may make appropriate corrections to the
15 subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such organization,
16 therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls,
17 the applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole
18 discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel those
19 taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest remaining unpaid.
20 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
