BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary,  upon  voter

district  into  the  Southampton school district in Suffolk county, such
successor school district shall be authorized to establish a reserve for
tax reduction pursuant to subdivision 37 of section 1709 of  the  educa-

of the successor school district  determines  by  resolution  that  such
capital  project  and reserve fund is no longer necessary for the opera-
tion of the successor district. The proceeds of  such  reserve  for  tax
reduction  shall only be utilized for tax reduction for taxpayers of the
Southampton school district existing before the voter  approval  of  the
dissolution  and  annexation  of the Tuckahoe common school district, in
the manner provided for by this act.
  S 2. The successor school district shall annually provide  a  detailed
