  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the assessor of the county of Nassau is hereby authorized to accept from
Russell Gardens Association an application for exemption from real prop-

2015-2016  general taxes and the 2014-2015 school taxes, for the parcels

taxation and make appropriate corrections to the subject roll.  If  such
exemption is granted and such organization therefore shall have paid any

paid  and  cancel  any  taxes,  fines,  penalties, interest or tax liens
remaining unpaid.
