        AN ACT to authorize the assessor of the town of  Haverstraw,  county  of

          tion for exemption from real property taxes

          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 Haverstraw, county of Rockland, is hereby
     3  authorized to accept from Hi Tor Animal Care Center, Inc. an application
     4  for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of  the
     5  real property tax law for the 2017 assessment roll, for the parcel owned
     6  by  such organization located at 221 Ramapo Road, in the village of West
     7  Haverstraw within the town of Haverstraw, county of Rockland,  otherwise
     8  known  as  Rockland  county  tax map, section 26.11, block 2, lot 58. If
     9  accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had  been  received
    10  on or 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.
