       AN ACT in relation to authorizing Congregation Beth Mikroh, Inc. to file

         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,  county of Rockland, is hereby
    3  authorized to accept from Congregation Beth Mikroh, Inc. an  application
    4  for  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the
    5  real property tax law for the 2010 assessment roll, for the parcel owned
    6  by such not-for-profit which  is  located  at  208  West  Maple  Avenue,
    7  Monsey,  county of Rockland, otherwise known as Rockland county tax map,
    8  section 49.11, block 1, lot 1. If accepted,  the  application  shall  be
    9  reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable status date
   10  established for such roll.
   11    If  satisfied  that  such  congregation would otherwise be entitled to
   12  such exemption if such  not-for-profit  organization  had  acquired  the
   13  property and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxa-
   14  ble  status  date, the assessor, upon approval by the Ramapo town board,
   15  may make appropriate correction to the subject roll.  If such  exemption
   16  is  granted  and  such  congregation, therefore, shall have paid any tax
   17  with respect to the subject roll, the applicable governing body  or  tax
   18  department  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those
   19  taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or  interest
   20  remaining unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
