 state,  except where the state equalization rate or special equalization
 rate equals or exceeds ninety-five percent, in which case  the  increase
 in  assessed  value  attributable  to such reconstruction, alteration or
 improvement shall be deemed to equal the market  value  of  such  recon-
 struction, alteration or improvement.

 authorized pursuant to section 421-f of the real property tax law and as
 amended by section one of this act, shall  not  be  granted  for  recon-
 struction,  alterations  or  improvements  unless  such  reconstruction,
 alteration or improvement was commenced subsequent to the effective date
 of the adopted or amended local law or resolution, as required  by  such
 section.
   § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
