       Introduced  by M. of A. RAMOS -- read once and referred to the Committee
         on Real Property Taxation
       AN ACT to authorize True Vine Holiness Church of  God  to  retroactively
         apply  for  a  real property tax exemption for certain property in the
         town of Islip, county of Suffolk
         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  county of Suffolk is hereby authorized to accept
    3  from True Vine Holiness Church of God, an application for exemption from
    4  real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property  tax
    5  law  for the 2012, 2013 and 2014 assessment roll for the parcel owned by
    6  such not-for-profit entity which is located at 30 Mindres Avenue, in the
    7  town of Islip, county of Suffolk,  otherwise  known  as  Suffolk  county
    8  section  115,  block  2, lot 41.   If accepted, the application shall be
    9  reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxable status date
   10  established for such rolls.
   11    If satisfied that such not-for-profit organization would otherwise  be
   12  entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed
   13  an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the
   14  assessor,  upon  approval  by  the  Suffolk county legislature, may make
   15  appropriate correction to the subject rolls. If such exemption is grant-
   16  ed and such organization,  therefore,  shall  have  paid  any  tax  with
   17  respect  to  the  subject  rolls,  the  applicable governing body or tax
   18  department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of  those
   19  taxes  paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or interest
   20  remaining 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.
