  • 1.  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  any general,
      special or local law to the contrary, the assessors in towns,  counties,
      and cities, having power to determine the taxable status of property for
      tax  purposes  shall,  not  later  than  ten  days prior to the date for
      hearing complaints in relation to assessments, or in  the  case  of  the
      city of New York, not later than thirty days prior to the final date for
      filing  an  appeal,  mail  to  each owner of such real property in their
      town, city or county a notice of change which said assessors  have  made
      in  the  taxable  status  of such property from the status of (a) wholly
      exempt to taxable in whole or in part or (b) taxable in part to  taxable
      in whole. Such notice shall include a statement of the date or dates and
      times  at  which  the  board  of  assessment  review  shall meet to hear
      complaints with respect to assessments.
        2. Failure to mail any such notice or failure of the owner to  receive
      the  same  shall not prevent the levy, collection and enforcement of the
      payment of taxes on such real property.
        3. The provisions of subdivision one of this section shall  not  apply
      to  any  assessing unit which sends an assessment disclosure notice and,
      if thereafter required, a notice of change,  pursuant  to  section  five
      hundred  eleven  of  this  chapter;  provided  such notice addresses the
      discontinuance of an exemption granted on the  assessment  roll  of  the
      preceding year to the property for which the notice is sent.
