  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the assessor of the town of Brookhaven is hereby  authorized  to  accept
from  Lord-N-Fields  Voice  of  Freedom  Bible  Church Community Workers
International Inc., d/b/a Voice of Freedom  Community  Bible  Church,  a
not-for-profit  organization,  an  application  for  exemption from real

of  the  town of Brookhaven upon approval by the town of Brookhaven town
board may grant exemption from taxation  with  respect  to  the  subject
rolls  and  make  appropriate  correction  to  the subject rolls. If the
exemption is granted and such not-for-profit corporation shall have paid
any tax with regard to the subject rolls, the town  of  Brookhaven  town
board may, in its 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.
