  located in the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk

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

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the assessors of the town of Brookhaven and of the  county  of  Suffolk,
are  hereby  authorized  to accept from Lighthouse Mission, Inc., a not-
for-profit organization, an application for exemption from real property
taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property  tax  law  for  the
2008-2009  assessment  roll,  for  the parcel owned by such organization
located in the village of Bellport at 1543  Montauk  Highway,  Bellport,
found  on  a Suffolk county tax map as district 0200 section 97590 block
0100 and lot 060000.  If accepted, the application shall be reviewed  as
if it had been received on or before the taxable status date established
for such roll.
  If  satisfied  that  such not-for-profit corporation acquired title to
such property for which it seeks exemption  subsequent  to  the  taxable
status  date  established  for such roll and prior to the taxable status
date for the next ensuing roll and would otherwise be entitled  to  such
exemption  if  the  organization  had  filed  an  application  for  such
exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessors  of  the
town  of Brookhaven and the county of Suffolk, upon approval by the town
council and the county legislature, shall grant exemption from  taxation
with  respect to the subject roll and make appropriate correction to the
subject roll. If the exemption is granted and such not-for-profit corpo-
ration shall have paid any tax with regard to the subject roll, the town
of Brookhaven and the county of Suffolk may, in their  sole  discretion,
provide  for  the  refund  of  those taxes paid and cancel taxes, fines,
penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
