AN ACT in relation to authorizing the assessor of the town of  Islip  to
  accept  an  application  for  exemption  from  real  property tax from
  Adelante of Suffolk County, Inc. for a certain parcel of land

  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  assessor  of  the town of Islip is hereby authorized to accept from
Adelante of Suffolk County, Inc., an application or renewal of  applica-
tion for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of
the  real  property  tax  law  for the 2007-2008 assessment roll for the
parcel owned by such not-for-profit corporation which is located at  450
Elmore  Street,  hamlet of Central Islip in the town of Islip, county of
Suffolk, otherwise known as Suffolk county tax map school district  500,
section  121,  block  2,  lot 83. If accepted the application or renewal
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 organization would otherwise be
entitled to such exemption if such not-for-profit organization had filed
an application or renewal application for exemption by  the  appropriate
taxable status date, the assessor of the town of Islip, upon approval by
the  Islip  town  board,  may make appropriate correction to the subject
roll. If such exemption is granted  and  such  organization,  therefore,
shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the applicable
governing  body  or  tax department may, in its sole discretion, provide
for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel those taxes, fines, penal-
ties, liens, or interest remaining unpaid.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
