 8 trustees shall act as the board of assessors or may appoint such board
 9 from their members.] Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
 10 paragraph, a village which has enacted a local law as provided in subdi-

 19 § 2. This act shall take effect on the first of January next succeed-
 20 ing the date on which it shall have become a law. Effective immediately,
