       AN  ACT  to authorize the Shiloh Baptist Church of New Rochelle to apply

         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 city of New  Rochelle,  county  of  Westchester,  is
    3  hereby  authorized  to accept from Shiloh Baptist Church of New Rochelle
    4  an application for  exemption  from  real  property  taxes  pursuant  to
    5  section  420-a of the real property tax law for the 2009-2010 assessment
    6  roll, for the parcel  owned  by  such  not-for-profit  church  which  is
    7  located  at  39  Kress Ave, city of New Rochelle, county of Westchester,
    8  otherwise known as New Rochelle tax map block and lot number  1418-0073.
    9  If  accepted,  the  application  shall  be  reviewed  as  if it had been
   10  received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
   11    If satisfied that Shiloh Baptist Church of New Rochelle  would  other-
   12  wise  be  entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization
   13  had acquired the subject property and filed an application for exemption
   14  by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon  approval  by
   15  the  New  Rochelle  City Council, may make appropriate correction to the
   16  subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization, there-
   17  fore, shall have paid any tax with respect  to  the  subject  roll,  the
   18  applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
   19  provide  for  the  refund  of  those  taxes paid and cancel those taxes,
   20  fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
