         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,  county of Rockland, is hereby
    3  authorized to accept from Iqra Darul  Ehsan,  Inc.  an  application  for
    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property  tax law for the 2012 and 2013 assessment rolls, for the parcel
    6  owned by such organization located at 6 Suffern Place, in the village of
    7  Suffern within the town of Ramapo, county of Rockland,  otherwise  known
    8  as Rockland county tax map, section 54.36, block 1, lot 3.  If accepted,
    9  the  application  shall  be  reviewed  as  if it had been received on or
   10  before the taxable status date established for such rolls.
   11    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
   12  such  exemption if such organization had acquired the property and filed
   13  an application by the appropriate taxable  status  date,  the  assessor,
   14  upon approval by the town board, may make appropriate corrections to the
   15  subject  rolls.  If  such  exemption  is  granted and such organization,
   16  therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect to  the  subject  rolls,
   17  the  applicable  governing  body  or  tax  department  may,  in its sole
   18  discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel  those
   19  taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest remaining unpaid.
   20    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
