       Introduced by Sen. MARCHIONE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
         printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
       AN  ACT  to  authorize  the  assessor of the city of Hudson to accept an
         application for exemption from real  property  taxes  from  the  State
         Street  A  M E Zion Church for a certain parcel of land in the city of
         Hudson
         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 Hudson is hereby authorized to accept from
    3  the State Street A M E Zion Church an  application  for  exemption  from
    4  real  property  taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax
    5  law for a portion of the 2011 assessment roll for the parcels located in
    6  the city of Hudson at 201-205, 207 and 209 State Street, Hudson,  other-
    7  wise known as: section 109.35, block 2, lot 20; section 109.35, block 2,
    8  lot 21; and section 109.35, block 2, lot 22.
    9    If  accepted,  such  application  shall  be  reviewed  as  it had been
   10  received on or before the taxable  status  dates  established  for  such
   11  rolls. If satisfied that such church would otherwise be entitled to such
   12  exemption  if  such church had filed an application for exemption by the
   13  appropriate taxable status dates, the assessor,  upon  approval  of  the
   14  common council of the city of Hudson, may grant exemption from all taxa-
   15  tion  and  make  appropriate  correction  to  the subject rolls. If such
   16  exemption is granted and such church therefore shall have paid  any  tax
   17  with  respect to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax department
   18  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid
   19  and  cancel any taxes, fines, penalties, interest or tax liens remaining
   20  unpaid.
   21    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
        EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                             [ ] is old law to be omitted.
