        AN ACT in relation to authorizing the assessor of the town  of  Brookha-
          ven,  county  of  Suffolk,  to accept from the Post-Morrow Foundation,
          Inc. an application for exemption from real property taxes

          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 law to the contrary,
     2  the  assessor  of  the  town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, is hereby
     3  authorized to accept from the Post-Morrow Foundation, Inc.  an  applica-
     4  tion for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of
     5  the real property tax law, with respect to the 2022-2023 assessment roll
     6  for  the  parcels owned by such organization, with parcels being located
     7  at 0 and 25 Orchard Road, in the town of Brookhaven, county of  Suffolk,
     8  otherwise  known  as  Suffolk county tax map numbers 0200-979.60-03-002,
     9  0200-979.60-03-008,    0200-979.60-03-009,    0200-979.60-03-011     and
    10  0200-979.60-03-020.001.  If  accepted, the application shall be reviewed
    11  as if it had been received on or before the taxable status  date  estab-
    12  lished for such rolls.
    13    If  satisfied  that  such  organization would otherwise be entitled to
    14  such exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application  for
    15  exemption  by  the  appropriate  taxable status date, the assessor, upon
    16  approval  by  the  town  board  of  Brookhaven,  may  make   appropriate
    17  correction  to  the subject rolls. If such exemption is granted and such
    18  organization, therefore, shall have paid any tax  with  respect  to  the
    19  subject  rolls,  the applicable governing body or tax department may, in
    20  its sole discretion, provide for the refund  of  those  taxes  paid  and
    21  cancel  those  taxes,  fines,  penalties,  liens  or  interest remaining
    22  unpaid.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
