Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the assessor of the town of Southampton is hereby authorized to accept
from the Southampton Union Free School District applications for
exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 408 of the real

the parcel owned by such school district located in the town of South-
ampton at 1020 Majors Path, otherwise known as section 98, block 1, lot

If accepted, such applications shall be reviewed as if they had been
received on or before the taxable status dates established for such

acquired the property by the appropriate taxable status dates, the
assessor of the town of Southampton, upon approval by the town board,
may grant exemption from all taxation beginning on the date of acquisi-
tion of such parcel by such school district and cancel taxes, fines,
penalties and interest remaining unpaid, and make appropriate
corrections to the subject assessment rolls.
