        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
     2  the assessor of the town of Islip is hereby authorized  to  accept  from
     3  Mercy  Haven,  Inc.,  a  not-for-profit organization, an application for
     4  exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real
     5  property tax law for the 2018-2019 assessment roll for the parcel  owned
     6  by  such  organization  located in the town of Islip located at 56 Adams
     7  Road in Central Islip, also known as district 0500, section 78.00, block
     8  01.00, lot 039.001.
     9    If accepted, the application shall be  reviewed  as  if  it  had  been
    10  received on or before the taxable status date established for such roll.
    11  If  satisfied  that  such not-for-profit organization would otherwise be
    12  entitled to such exemption if the organization had filed an  application
    13  for  such exemption by the appropriate taxable status date, the assessor
    14  of the town of Islip upon approval by the town of Islip town  board  may
    15  grant  exemption from taxation with respect to the subject roll and make
    16  appropriate correction to the subject roll.  If the exemption is granted
    17  and such not-for-profit organization shall have paid any tax with regard
    18  to the subject roll, the town of Islip  town  board  may,  in  its  sole
    19  discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel taxes,
    20  fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
