    8  taxation  beginning  with the date of acquisition of the property by the

   10  these  subject  rolls.  If such exemption is granted and if the Incorpo-
   11  rated Village of Westbury shall have paid any tax with respect  to  such
   12  subject  rolls,  the  governing  body or tax department may, in its sole
   13  discretion, provide for the refund of those taxes paid and cancel taxes,
   14  fines, penalties or interest remaining unpaid.
   15    S 8. This act shall take effect immediately.
