       Introduced  by  Sen.  KLEIN  -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
         printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
       AN ACT authorizing a real property tax exemption application from Pelham
         Jewish Center in the town of Pelham, county of Westchester
         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 Pelham, county of Westchester, is hereby
    3  authorized to accept from the Pelham Jewish Center  an  application  for
    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property tax law for the 2012-2013 assessment roll, for the parcel owned
    6  by  such  non-for-profit  synagogue  which is located at 804 Wolfs Lane,
    7  otherwise  known  as  Pelham  tax  map  block  and  lot  number   554405
    8  166.27-2-64. If accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had
    9  been  received on or before the taxable status date established for such
   10  roll.
   11    If satisfied that the Pelham Jewish Center would otherwise be entitled
   12  to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had  acquired  the
   13  subject property and filed an application for exemption by the appropri-
   14  ate  taxable  status  date,  the  assessor, upon approval by the Town of
   15  Pelham, Village of Pelham Manor and Pelham UFSD Board, may  make  appro-
   16  priate  correction to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted and
   17  such organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax  with  respect  to
   18  the  subject  roll, the applicable governing body or tax department may,
   19  in its sole discretion, provide for a refund of  those  taxes  paid  and
   20  cancel  those  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  liens or interest that remain
   21  unpaid.
   22    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
        EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                             [ ] is old law to be omitted.
