         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, is hereby authorized to accept  from
    3  the  town  of  Ramapo,  an  application for exemption from real property
    4  taxes pursuant to section 406 of the  real  property  tax  law  for  the
    5  2007-2008  assessment  roll, for the parcel owned by such town, which is
    6  located in the town of Ramapo at 120 Torne Valley, otherwise  known  as:
    7  section  47.7,  block  1,  lot 3. If accepted, such application shall be
    8  reviewed as if it had been received on or before the applicable deadline
    9  for filing such applications established for such roll.
   10    If satisfied that such corporation: (i) acquired title to the property
   11  for which it seeks exemption and (ii) would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
   12  such  exemption  if  such town had filed an application for exemption by
   13  the applicable deadline for filing such applications, the assessor, upon
   14  approval by the town board of the town of Ramapo,  may  grant  exemption
   15  from all taxation beginning with the date of acquisition of the property
   16  by  such  town  and  make appropriate correction to the subject roll. If
   17  exemption is granted and such town therefore shall  have  paid  any  tax
   18  with  respect  to the subject roll, the governing body or tax department
   19  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid
   20  and cancel taxes, fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
