         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 city of Schenectady is hereby authorized  to  accept
    3  from  New  Creation  in  Christ  Ministries,  Inc.    an application for
    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property tax law for the 2008 assessment roll for the  parcel  owned  by
    6  such  not-for-profit  organization which is located in the city of Sche-
    7  nectady, county of Schenectady at 1073 Howard Street, otherwise known as
    8  section 49.55, block 5, lot 30. If accepted, such 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  New  Creation  in Christ Ministries, Inc.   would
   12  otherwise be entitled to such exemption if it had filed  an  application
   13  for  exemption  by  the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor of
   14  the city of Schenectady may upon approval by the city  council  of  such
   15  city,  grant  exemption  from taxation based on the 2008 assessment roll
   16  and owing by such not-for-profit organization on the effective  date  of
   17  this  act,  and make appropriate correction of the subject roll. If such
   18  exemption is granted and if such not-for-profit organization shall  have
   19  paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the governing body or tax
   20  department  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those
   21  taxes paid and cancel taxes,  fines,  penalties  or  interest  remaining
   22  unpaid.
   23    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
