Relates to permitting the Asbury Methodist Church to file an application for a real property tax exemption.

The bill allows the Asbury Methodist Church in Mount Vernon to apply for a property tax exemption for the 2018 tax year, despite missing the original deadline. If approved, the church could receive a refund for taxes already paid and have any unpaid taxes canceled.

Positive media analysis is being generated.

Although no direct negative media coverage exists, critics might argue that granting retroactive tax exemptions could set a precedent for other organizations to seek similar relief, potentially impacting municipal tax revenues.
