        AN ACT to amend chapter 638 of the laws of 2022 relating to  authorizing
          the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk assessor to accept an appli-
          cation  for  a  real property tax exemption from Word of Truth Church,
          Inc., in relation to making technical corrections thereto
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section  1.  Section  1 of chapter 638 of the laws of 2022 relating to
     2  authorizing the town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk assessor to accept
     3  an application for a real property tax  exemption  from  Word  of  Truth
     4  Church, Inc., is amended to read as follows:
     5    Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
     6  the  assessor  of  the  town  of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk is hereby
     7  authorized to accept from Word of Truth Church, Inc. an application  for
     8  exemption  from  real  property taxes pursuant to section [462] 420-a of
     9  the real property tax law with respect to the 2021-2022 assessment  roll
    10  for  all  of  the  2021-2022  school  taxes and all of the 2021 and 2022
    11  general taxes for the parcel owned by such organization located  at  208
    12  Jamaica  Avenue,  town of Brookhaven, county of Suffolk, otherwise known
    13  as Suffolk county tax map district 0200, section  771.00,  block  09.00,

    15  been  received on or before the taxable status date established for such
    16  assessment roll.
    17    If satisfied that such organization would  otherwise  be  entitled  to
    18  such  exemption  if  such  organization  had  filed  an  application for
    19  exemption by the appropriate taxable status  date,  the  assessor,  upon
    20  approval  by  the Brookhaven town board, may make appropriate correction
    21  to the subject roll. If such exemption is granted and such organization,
    22  therefore, shall have paid any tax with respect to the subject roll, the
    23  applicable governing body or tax department may, in its sole discretion,
    24  provide for the refund of those  taxes  paid  and  cancel  those  taxes,
    25  fines, penalties, liens or interest remaining unpaid.
    26    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
