        AN ACT in relation to authorizing Turkish Cultural  Center  to  file  an

     2  the assessor of the town of Islip, county of Suffolk, is hereby  author-
     3  ized to accept from the Turkish Cultural Center, a not-for-profit corpo-
     4  ration,  an  application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant
     5  to section 420-a of the real property tax law with respect to the  2016-
     6  -2017  and  2017--2018  assessment  rolls,  for the parcel owned by such
     7  not-for-profit corporation which is located at 701-1 Koehler Ave, in the
     8  hamlet of Ronkonkoma, town of Islip, county of Suffolk, otherwise  known
     9  as  Suffolk  county  tax map district 0500, section 127.00, block 04.00,
    10  lot 001.000. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had
    11  been received on or before the taxable status date established for  such
    12  assessment rolls.
    13    If satisfied that such corporation would otherwise be entitled to such
    14  exemption  if such corporation had filed an application for exemption by
    15  the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval of  the
    16  town  of  Islip  town  board,  may grant exemption from taxation on such
    17  assessment rolls and make the appropriate  corrections  of  the  subject
    18  rolls.  If exemptions are granted and such corporation, therefore, shall
    19  have paid any tax with respect to  the  subject  rolls,  the  applicable
    20  governing  body  or  tax  departments,  in  their sole discretion, shall
    21  provide for the refund of the taxes paid, along with any fines or penal-
    22  ties paid, and cancel taxes remaining unpaid.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
