       AN ACT to authorize the town  of  Ramapo  to  file  an  application  for

         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  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  98 Concklin Road, otherwise known as: section
    7  33.15, block 1, lot 10. 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    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
