The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that Education Law §2853(1)(d) does not grant a tax exemption for real property owned by a private landlord and leased to a charter school; the exemption is limited to property owned by the charter school, mirroring the treatment of public schools.
