          printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules
        AN ACT in relation to permitting the Viola Methodist Church to  file  an

          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

     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 the Viola Methodist Church, an application for
     4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
     5  property  tax law for the 2014 assessment roll with respect to the 2014-
     6  2015 school taxes and the 2015 county and town  taxes  for  the  parcels
     7  conveyed  to such not-for-profit organization located at 161 Viola Road,
     8  otherwise known as tax map reference number 89/49.10-1-7 and at 46 Spook
     9  Rock Road, otherwise known as tax map reference number 11/41.09-1-7.  If
    10  accepted,  the  application shall be reviewed as if it had been received
    11  on or before the taxable status  date  established  for  such  roll.  If
    12  satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise be enti-
    13  tled  to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed an
    14  application for exemption by the appropriate taxable  status  date,  the
    15  assessor,  upon  approval  by the Ramapo town board may make appropriate
    16  correction to the subject roll. If such exemption is  granted  and  such
    17  not-for-profit  organization,  therefore, shall have paid any taxes with
    18  respect to the subject  roll,  the  applicable  governing  body  or  tax
    19  department  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those
    20  taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or  interest
    21  remaining unpaid.
    22    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
