AN ACT authorizing the assessor of the city of Troy to accept  from  the
  Sixth  Avenue  Baptist  Church  an application for exemption from real
  property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law

  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 Troy is hereby authorized to accept from the
Sixth Avenue Baptist Church an application for exemption from real prop-
erty  taxes  pursuant  to section 420-a of the real property tax law for
the 2012, 2013 and 2014 assessment rolls for the parcel located  in  the
city  of  Troy  at 3370 Sixth Avenue, otherwise known as: section 90.55,
block 3, lot 1.
  If accepted, such application shall be reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
received  on  or  before  the  taxable status dates established for such
rolls. If satisfied that such church would otherwise be entitled to such
exemption if such church had filed an application for exemption  by  the
appropriate  taxable  status  dates,  the assessor, upon approval of the
common council of the city of Troy, may grant exemption from  all  taxa-
tion  and  make  appropriate  corrections  to the subject rolls. If such
exemption is granted and such church therefore 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 any taxes, fines, penalties, interest or tax liens remaining
unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.


 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
