        AN ACT in relation to authorizing the assessor of the town  of  Brookha-
          ven,  county  of  Suffolk, to accept an application for exemption from
          real property taxes from the Selden Fire District

          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 Selden Fire District, an  application  for
     4  exemption  from  real property taxes pursuant to section 464 of the real
     5  property tax law with respect to the 2021-2022 assessment roll, for  the
     6  parcels  owned  by such organization, with such parcels being located at
     7  235 Magnolia Drive, in the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, other-
     8  wise known as Suffolk county tax  map  district  0200,  section  393.00,
     9  block 0.700, lot 006.000.
    10    If  accepted,  the  application  shall  be  reviewed as if it had been
    11  received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
    12  If satisfied that such organization would otherwise be entitled to  such
    13  exemption if such organization had filed an application for exemption by
    14  the  appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon approval by the
    15  Brookhaven town board, may grant exemption from all  taxation  and  make
    16  appropriate corrections to the subject roll. If such exemption is grant-
    17  ed  and such organization therefore shall have paid any tax with respect
    18  to the subject roll, the applicable governing  body  or  tax  department
    19  may,  in  its sole discretion, provide for the refund of the taxes paid,
    20  along with any fines or penalties paid, and  cancel  any  taxes,  fines,
    21  penalties, interest, or tax liens remaining unpaid.
    22    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
