        AN ACT in relation to authorizing NYSARC, Inc. Rockland  County  Chapter
          to  file  with  the  town  of  Clarkstown  assessor an application for
          certain real property tax exemptions

          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  Clarkstown, Rockland county, is hereby
     3  authorized to accept from NYSARC,  Inc.    Rockland  County  Chapter  an
     4  application  for  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section
     5  420-a of the real property tax law for the 2020 assessment roll, for the
     6  parcel owned by such organization located at 210 Route 303 in  the  town
     7  in  the town of Clarkstown, County of Rockland, otherwise known as Rock-
     8  land county tax map section 52.15, block 1,  lot  6.  If  accepted,  the
     9  application  shall  be  reviewed as if it had been received on or before
    10  the taxable status date established for such roll.
    11    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
    12  such  exemption  if  such organization had acquired the subject property
    13  and filed an application for exemption by the appropriate taxable status
    14  date, the assessor, upon approval by the town board, may grant exemption
    15  from all taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject  roll.
    16  If  such exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have
    17  paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the governing body or tax
    18  department may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of  those
    19  taxes  paid  and  cancel  any  taxes, fines, penalties, interest, or tax
    20  liens remaining unpaid.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
