        AN ACT to authorize Congregation Divrei  Chaim  of  Monsey  to  file  an

          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 is hereby authorized to  accept  from
     3  Congregation  Divrei  Chaim  of Monsey an application for exemption from
     4  real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax
     5  law  for  the  2014-2015  assessment roll, for the parcel located in the
     6  Town of Ramapo at 61 Carlton Rd, otherwise known as Rockland county  tax
     7  map section 49.18, block 2, lot 32.1. If accepted, the application shall
     8  be  reviewed  as if it had been received on or before the taxable status
     9  dates established for such roll.
    10    If satisfied that such school would  otherwise  be  entitled  to  such
    11  exemption  if such school had acquired the subject property and filed an
    12  application for exemption by the appropriate taxable  status  date,  the
    13  assessor, upon approval by the Town Board of Ramapo, may grant exemption
    14  from  all taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject roll.
    15  If such exemption is granted and such school therefore shall  have  paid
    16  any  tax  with  respect  to  the subject roll, the governing body or tax
    17  department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of  those
    18  taxes  paid  and  cancel  any  taxes, fines, penalties, interest, or tax
    19  liens remaining unpaid.
    20    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
