         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 Schenectady is hereby authorized to accept
    3  from New Creation  in  Christ  Ministries,  Inc.    an  application  for
    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property  tax  law  for the 2007, 2008 and 2009 assessment rolls for the
    6  parcel owned by such not-for-profit organization which is located in the
    7  city of Schenectady, county of Schenectady at 1073 Howard Street, other-
    8  wise known as section 49.55, block 5, lot 30. If accepted, such applica-
    9  tion shall be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the taxa-
   10  ble status date established for such rolls.
   11    If satisfied that New Creation  in  Christ  Ministries,  Inc.    would
   12  otherwise  be  entitled to such exemption if it had filed an application
   13  for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date,  the  assessor  of
   14  the  city  of  Schenectady may upon approval by the city council of such
   15  city, grant exemption from taxation based on the  2007,  2008  and  2009
   16  assessment  rolls  and  owing by such not-for-profit organization on the
   17  effective date of this act,  and  make  appropriate  correction  of  the
   18  subject rolls. If such exemptions are granted and if such not-for-profit
   19  organization  shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls,
   20  the governing body or  tax  department  may,  in  its  sole  discretion,
   21  provide  for  the  refund  of  such  taxes paid and cancel taxes, fines,
   22  penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
   23    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
