An act authorizing the Congregation Divrei Chaim to receive retroactive

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,

from Congregation Divrei Chaim, an application for exemption from real
property taxes pursuant to section 430 of the real property tax law with
respect to the 2023, 2024 and 2025 assessment rolls, and all of
2023-2024, 2024-2025, and 2025-2026 school taxes for the parcel conveyed
to such organization, with such parcels being located at 67 and 71
College Road, in the village of Monsey, town of Ramapo otherwise known

the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval by the
Rockland County legislature, may grant exemption from all taxation and
make appropriate corrections to the subject rolls. If such exemption is
granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any tax with

in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and
cancel any taxes, fines, penalties, interest or tax liens remaining
unpaid.
