    4  taxes  pursuant to section 406 of the real property tax law for the 2009
    5  assessment roll, for the parcels owned by such town, which  are  located

    7  33.15, block 1, lots 5 and 10.  If accepted, such application  shall  be
    8  reviewed as if it had been received on or before the applicable deadline

   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 acquired such property by the appropriate
   13  taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval by the  town  board  of
   14  the town of Ramapo, may grant exemption from all taxation beginning with
   15  the  date of acquisition of the property by such town and make appropri-
   16  ate correction to the subject roll. If exemption  is  granted  and  such
   17  town therefore shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll,
   18  the  governing  body  or  tax  department  may,  in its sole discretion,
   19  provide for the refund of those taxes  paid  and  cancel  taxes,  fines,
