       AN ACT to authorize the Shiloh Baptist Church of New Rochelle  to  apply

         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 New Rochelle, county of Westchester, is
    3  hereby authorized to accept from Shiloh Baptist Church of  New  Rochelle
    4  an  application  for  exemption  from  real  property  taxes pursuant to
    5  section 420-a of the real property tax law for the 2009-2010  assessment
    6  roll,  for  the  parcel  owned  by  such  not-for-profit church which is
    7  located at 39 Kress Ave, city of New Rochelle,  county  of  Westchester,
    8  otherwise  known as New Rochelle tax map block and lot number 1418-0073.
    9  If accepted, the application  shall  be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
   10  received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
   11    If  satisfied  that Shiloh Baptist Church of New Rochelle would other-
   12  wise be entitled to such exemption if such  not-for-profit  organization
   13  had acquired the subject property and filed an application for exemption
   14  by  the  appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval by
   15  the New Rochelle City Council, may make appropriate  correction  to  the
   16  subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization, there-
   17  fore,  shall  have  paid  any  tax with respect to the subject roll, the
   18  applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
   19  provide for the refund of those  taxes  paid  and  cancel  those  taxes,
   20  fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
