         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 Wallkill is hereby authorized to accept from
    3  Pets Alive Inc., an application for exemption from real  property  taxes
    4  pursuant  to  section  420-a  of  the real property tax law for the 2007
    5  assessment roll for the parcel owned by such not-for-profit organization
    6  which is located in the town of Wallkill at 363  Derby  Road,  otherwise
    7  known  as  section  21,  block  1,  lot  3; section 22, block 1, lot 30;
    8  section 22, block 1, lot 32.1; and section 22, block 1,  lot  50.21.  If
    9  accepted,  such application shall be reviewed as if it had been received
   10  on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
   11    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
   12  such  exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application for
   13  exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the  assessor  of  the
   14  town  of  Wallkill, upon approval by the town board of the town of Wall-
   15  kill, may  grant  exemption  from  all  taxation  and  make  appropriate

   17  ization  therefore  shall  have paid any tax with respect to the subject
   18  rolls, the governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
   19  provide for the refund of those taxes  paid  and  cancel  taxes,  fines,
   20  penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
