 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 New Rochelle, county of Westchester, is
 hereby authorized to accept from Shiloh Baptist Church of  New  Rochelle
 an  application  for  exemption  from  real  property  taxes pursuant to
 section 420-a of the real property tax law for the 2009-2010  assessment
 roll,  for  the  parcel  owned  by  such  not-for-profit church which is
 located at 39 Kress Ave, city of New Rochelle,  county  of  Westchester,
 otherwise  known as New Rochelle tax map block and lot number 1418-0073.
 If accepted, the application  shall  be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
 received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.

 subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization, there
 fore,  shall  have  paid  any  tax with respect to the subject roll, the
 applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
 provide for the refund of those  taxes  paid  and  cancel  those  taxes,
 fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
