1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
2 the assessor of the town of New Castle, county of Westchester, is hereby
3 authorized to accept from the Ethical Society of Northern Westchester an
4 application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section
5 462 of the real property tax law with respect to the 2023 assessment
6 rolls, for all applicable taxes during the 2022-2023 tax year, for the
7 parcel owned by such organization located at 108 Pinesbridge Road, town
8 of New Castle, county of Westchester, otherwise known as Westchester
9 county tax map number 553600 80 19-1-11. If accepted, the application
10 shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable
11 status date established for such assessment roll.
12 § 2. If satisfied that such organization would otherwise be entitled
13 to such exemption if such organization had filed an application for
14 exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
15 approval by the town board of New Castle, may make appropriate
16 corrections to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such
17 organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect to the
18 subject roll, the applicable governing body or tax department may, in
19 its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and
20 cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining
21 unpaid.
