 4 (a) Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, a tax
 5 district may enter into a contract to sell some or all of the delinquent
 6 tax liens held by it to the state of New York municipal bond bank agency
 7 created pursuant to section twenty-four hundred thirty-three of the
 8 public authorities law, hereinafter referred to as the "bond bank", or
 9 to one or more tax lien entities created by the bond bank pursuant to
 10 section twenty-four hundred thirty-five-b of the public authorities law.
 11 A tax district may enter into such a contract whether or not it is
 12 otherwise subject to the provisions of this article[; provided, however,
 13 that any county, city or town that is not subject to the provisions of

 15 of this article may continue to enforce the collection of delinquent
 16 taxes, including through the sale of tax liens, pursuant to a county
 17 charter, city charter, administrative code or special law]. Notwith-
 18 standing any provision of law to the contrary, no tax district in a city
 19 with a population of one million or more shall sell some or all of the
 20 tax liens held by it.
