    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property tax law for the 2009-2010  assessment  rolls  from  a  pro-rata
    6  portion  of  the 2009-2010 school taxes and a pro-rata share of the 2010
    7  general taxes and the 2010-2011 assessment rolls  with  respect  to  the

   18  property  by  Family  Life  Worship  Center  Inc.   and make appropriate
   19  correction of these subject rolls. If such exemption is granted  and  if
