        AN ACT in relation to authorizing the Town of Brookhaven to grant  Mary-
          haven Center of Hope, Inc. of East Patchogue a property tax exemption

          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 Maryhaven Center of Hope, Inc., a not-for-pro-
     4  fit  corporation,  an application for exemption from real property taxes
     5  pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law with  respect  to
     6  the  2016-2017  assessment  rolls, for the parcel owned by such not-for-
     7  profit corporation which is located at 2 Piper  Court,  East  Patchogue,
     8  Town of Brookhaven, County of Suffolk, otherwise known as Suffolk County
     9  tax  map  district  0200,  section  977.70, block 03.00, lot 010.000. If
    10  accepted, the application shall be reviewed as if it had  been  received
    11  on  or  before  the  taxable status date established for such assessment
    12  rolls.
    13    If satisfied that such corporation would otherwise be entitled to such
    14  exemption if such not-for-profit corporation has  filed  an  application
    15  for exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor, upon
    16  approval of the Town of Brookhaven board, may grant exemption from taxa-
    17  tion  on  such  assessment rolls and make the appropriate corrections of
    18  the subject rolls. If  exemptions  are  granted  and  such  corporation,
    19  therefore,  shall  have  paid any tax with respect to the subject rolls,
    20  the  applicable  governing  body  or  tax  departments,  in  their  sole
    21  discretion,  shall  provide for the refund of the taxes paid, along with
    22  any fines or penalties paid, and cancel taxes remaining unpaid.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
