Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, 2 the assessor of the town of Islip, county of Suffolk, is hereby author- 3 ized to accept from the Church of Pentecost, USA, Inc., a not-for-profit 4 organization, an application for exemption from real property taxes 5 pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law with respect to 6 the 2025--2026 assessment rolls, for the parcels owned by such organiza- 7 tion which are located at 11 Collins Avenue, in the hamlet of Sayville, 8 town of Islip, county of Suffolk, otherwise known as Suffolk county tax 9 map district 500, section 383.00, block 02.00, lot 001.000. 10 If accepted, such application shall be reviewed as if it had been 11 received on or before the taxable status date established for such 12 rolls.
