  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the  assessor  of  the town of Huntington is hereby authorized to accept

appropriate  taxable status date, the assessor of the town of Huntington

taxation based on the 2007 and 2008 assessment rolls and owing  by  such
not-for-profit  organization on the effective date of this act, and make
appropriate correction of the subject rolls. If such exemption is grant-
ed and if such not-for-profit organization shall have paid any tax  with
respect  to the subject rolls, the governing body or tax department may,
in its sole discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes  paid  and
cancel taxes, fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
