          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  Hamaspik of Rockland County, Inc. an application for exemption from
     4  real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax
     5  law  for the 2017 assessment roll, for the parcel located in the Town of
     6  Ramapo at 320 Route 59, otherwise  known  as  Town  of  Ramapo  tax  map
     7  section  57.45,  block  1,  lot 7. If accepted, the application shall be
     8  reviewed as if it had been received on  or  before  the  taxable  status
     9  dates established for such roll.
    10    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
    11  such exemption if such organization had acquired  the  subject  property
    12  and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
    13  date, the assessor, upon approval by the Town Board of Ramapo, may grant
    14  exemption  from  all  taxation  and  make appropriate corrections to the
    15  subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization  there-
    16  fore  shall  have  paid  any  tax  with respect to the subject roll, the
    17  governing body or tax department may, in its  sole  discretion,  provide
    18  for  the  refund of those taxes paid and cancel any taxes, fines, penal-
    19  ties, interest, or tax liens remaining unpaid.
    20    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
