        Introduced  by M. of A. RABBITT -- read once and referred to the Commit-
          tee on Real Property Taxation
 
        AN ACT to authorize the town  of  Ramapo  to  file  an  application  for
          exemption  from  real  property  taxes  for  a  certain parcel of land
          located 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 contra-
     2  ry, the assessor of the town of Ramapo, is hereby authorized  to  accept
     3  from the town of Ramapo, an application for exemption from real property
     4  taxes  pursuant to section 406 of the real property tax law for the 2009
     5  assessment roll, for the parcel owned by such town, which is located  in
     6  the  town  of Ramapo at 10 Torne Brook Road, otherwise known as: section
     7  39.19, block 1, lot 2. If accepted, such application shall  be  reviewed
     8  as  if  it  had  been  received on or before the applicable deadline for
     9  filing such applications established for such roll.
    10    If satisfied that such town: (i) acquired title to  the  property  for

    11  which  it  seeks  exemption and (ii) would otherwise be entitled to such
    12  exemption if such town had filed an application  for  exemption  by  the
    13  applicable  deadline  for  filing  such applications, the assessor, upon
    14  approval by the town board of the town of Ramapo,  may  grant  exemption
    15  from all taxation beginning with the date of acquisition of the property
    16  by  such  town  and  make appropriate correction to the subject roll. If
    17  exemption is granted and such town therefore shall  have  paid  any  tax
    18  with  respect  to the subject roll, the governing body or tax department
    19  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid
    20  and cancel taxes, fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
