AN ACT to authorize the village of Montebello to file an application for
  exemption  from  real  property  taxes  for  a  certain 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:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the  assessor of the town of Ramapo, is hereby authorized to accept from
the village of Montebello, an application for exemption from real  prop-
erty  taxes pursuant to section 406 of the real property tax law for the
2009 assessment roll, for the parcels owned by such village,  which  are
located  in  the  village of Montebello at 54 Mile Road, otherwise known
as: section 48.16, block 1, lot 6. If accepted, such  application  shall
be reviewed as if it had been received on or before the applicable dead-
line for filing such application established for such roll.
  If satisfied that such corporation: (i) acquired title to the property
for  which  it  seeks  exemption and (ii) would otherwise be entitled to
such exemption if such village had filed an application for exemption by
the applicable deadline for filing such application, the assessor,  upon
approval  by  the  town board of the town of Ramapo, may grant exemption
from all taxation beginning with the date of acquisition of the property
by such village and make appropriate correction to the subject roll.  If
exemption  is granted and such village therefore shall have paid any tax
with respect to the subject roll, the governing body or  tax  department
may,  in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid
and cancel taxes, fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
