       Introduced  by Sen. CARLUCCI -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
         printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
       AN ACT to authorize the Antrim Players, Inc. to file an application  for
         exemption  from  real property taxes for the parcel of land located in
         the town of Ramapo, county of Rockland
         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  Ramapo,  county of Rockland, is hereby
    3  authorized to accept from the Antrim Players, Inc.  an  application  for
    4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
    5  property  tax  law for the 2011, 2012 and 2013 assessment rolls, for the
    6  parcel owned by such not-for-profit, which is located  in  the  town  of
    7  Ramapo  at  15 Spook Rock Road, Wesley Hills, otherwise known as section
    8  41.05, block 1, lot 23. If accepted, such application shall be  reviewed
    9  as  if  it had been received on or before the taxable status date estab-
   10  lished for such rolls.
   11    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
   12  such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed an applica-
   13  tion for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor,
   14  upon  approval  by  the Ramapo town board, may grant exemption from real
   15  property taxes and make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If
   16  such exemption is granted and such organization, therefore,  shall  have
   17  paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls, the applicable governing
   18  body  or  tax  department  may,  in its sole discretion, provide for the
   19  refund of those taxes paid and cancel taxes, fines, penalties, liens, or
   20  interest 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.
