AN  ACT  to  amend  the public authorities law, in relation to exempting
  veterans organizations in New York city from sewer and water charges

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1.  Subdivision 5 of section 1045-j of the public authorities
law, as amended by chapter 514 of the laws of 1984, is amended  to  read
as follows:
  5.  Such  fees,  rates,  rents or other charges, if not paid when due,
shall constitute a lien upon the premises served and  a  charge  against
the  owners  thereof,  which  lien and charge shall bear interest at the
same rate as would unpaid taxes  of  the  city.  Such  lien  shall  take
precedence  over  all other liens or encumbrances, except taxes, and may
be foreclosed against the lot or building served in the same manner as a
lien for such taxes. The amount which remains due and unpaid  for  sixty
days  may,  with  interest thereon at the same rate as unpaid city taxes
and with reasonable attorneys' fees, be recovered by the water board  in
a  civil  action in the name of the water board against such owners. The
city, and any state agency shall be subject to  the  same  fees,  rates,
rents  or other charges under the same conditions as other users of such
water system or sewerage system, or both, as the case may be. Tax exempt
organizations shall be charged according to the  provisions  of  chapter
six  hundred ninety-six of the laws of eighteen hundred eighty-seven, as
amended by chapters eight hundred ninety-three and eight  hundred  nine-
ty-four  of  the laws of nineteen hundred eighty and by provisions which
may by law extend the provisions of such chapters  from  time  to  time;
PROVIDED THAT VETERANS ORGANIZATIONS, AS DEFINED IN SECTION FOUR HUNDRED
FIFTY-TWO  OF  THE  REAL PROPERTY TAX LAW AND LOCATED IN THE CITY, SHALL
NOT BE CHARGED ANY INCONSISTENT PROVISION OF  LAW  NOTWITHSTANDING.  Any

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
