         THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
       BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
    1    Section  1.    Notwithstanding  any  other provision of any law to the
    2  contrary, the assessor of the town of  Islip  is  hereby  authorized  to
    3  accept  from  the Gospel Tabernacle Church of God in Christ, an applica-
    4  tion for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of
    5  the real property tax law for the assessment rolls for the  2008,  2009,
    6  2010,  and  2011 tax years for the parsonage parcel located at 84 Banana
    7  Street, Central Islip, New York, 11722, also known  as  Lot  033.000  of
    8  Block  03.00 of Section 186.00 of District 0500. If accepted, the appli-
    9  cation shall be reviewed as if it had been received  on  or  before  the
   10  taxable status date established for such rolls.
   11    If  satisfied  that the Gospel Tabernacle Church of God in Christ, (i)
   12  acquired title to the property for which it seeks  exemption  subsequent
   13  to  the taxable status dates established for such rolls and prior to the
   14  taxable status dates for the next  ensuing  assessment  rolls  and  (ii)
   15  would  otherwise be entitled to such exemption if it had filed an appli-
   16  cation for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the  asses-
   17  sor,  upon approval by the town board of Islip, may grant exemption from
   18  taxation beginning with the date of acquisition of the property  by  the
   19  Gospel  Tabernacle  Church  of  God  in  Christ,  and  make  appropriate
   20  correction of these subject rolls. If such exemption is granted  and  if
   21  the  Gospel  Tabernacle  Church of God in Christ shall have paid any tax
   22  with respect to such subject rolls, the governing body or tax department
   23  may, in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid
   24  and cancel taxes, fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
   25    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
