        Introduced by M. of A. HAWLEY -- read once and referred to the Committee
          on Real Property Taxation
        AN  ACT  authorizing  the Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps to receive
          retroactive real property tax exempt status
          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 Sweden is hereby authorized to accept from
     3  the Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps  an  application  for  exemption
     4  from  real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property
     5  tax law for the 2016-2017 assessment rolls, for the parcels  located  in
     6  the  town  of  Sweden,  in  the county of Monroe, at 3 Burroughs Terrace
     7  otherwise known as tax map numbers 069.17-1-12 and 069.17-1-13, and Fair
     8  Street otherwise known as tax map number 069.17-1-11. If  accepted,  the
     9  application  shall  be  reviewed as if it had been received on or before
    10  the taxable status date established for such roll.
    11    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
    12  such  exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application for
    13  exemption by the appropriate taxable status  date,  the  assessor,  upon
    14  approval  by  the  town  of  Sweden  legislature,  may  make appropriate
    15  correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted  and  such
    16  organization,  therefore,  shall  have  paid any tax with respect to the
    17  subject rolls, the applicable governing body or tax department  may,  in
    18  its  sole  discretion,  provide  for  the refund of those taxes paid and
    19  cancel those  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  liens  or  interest  remaining
    20  unpaid.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
