  AN ACT to authorize Holding Our Own, Inc.   to file an  application  for
    real property tax exemption

    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 city of Albany, county of Albany, is hereby  author-
  ized  to accept from Holding Our Own, Inc.  an application for exemption
  from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real  property
  tax  law for the 2009 and 2010 assessment rolls for the parcels owned by
  such not-for-profit organization which is located in the city of Albany,
  county of Albany, otherwise known as 373 Central Avenue, tax map  parcel
  number  06504600010410000000;  356 Sherman Street, tax map parcel number
  06504600010380000000, and 358 Sherman  Street,  tax  map  parcel  number
  06504600010370000000.    If accepted, such application shall be reviewed
  as if it had been received on or before the taxable status date or dates
  established for such rolls.
    If satisfied that Holding Our Own, Inc. would otherwise be entitled to
  such exemption if it had filed  an  application  for  exemption  by  the
  appropriate  taxable status date, the assessor of the city of Albany may
  upon approval by the common council of such city, grant  exemption  from
  taxation  based  on the 2009 and 2010 assessment rolls and owing by such
  not-for-profit organization on the effective date of this act, and  make
  appropriate correction of the subject rolls. If such exemption is grant-
  ed  and if such not-for-profit organization shall have paid any tax with
  respect to the subject rolls, 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.
