In the Matter of Shoppingtown Mall NY LLC, Appellant, v Assessor of Town of Dewitt et al., Respondents. Jamesville Dewitt Central School District, Intervenor-Respondent.
    [38 NYS3d 466]
   Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Onondaga County (Donald A. Greenwood, J.), entered December 10, 2014 in a proceeding pursuant to RPTL article 7. The order, among other things, dismissed the petition.

It is hereby ordered that the order so appealed from is unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum: On appeal from an order dismissing the petition in this proceeding pursuant to RPTL article 7, petitioner contends that it may challenge the assessment as unconstitutional under the exception to RPTL 727 (1) set forth in Susquehanna Dev. v Assessor of City of Binghamton (185 Misc 2d 267 [2000]), and thus that Supreme Court erred in granting the motion and cross motion to dismiss the petition as barred by the statute. Petitioner raises that contention for the first time on appeal, and it therefore is not properly before us (cf. Matter of ELT Harriman, LLC v Assessor of Town of Woodbury, 128 AD3d 201, 206 [2015], lv denied 26 NY3d 918 [2016]; see generally Ciesinski v Town of Aurora, 202 AD2d 984, 985 [1994]).

Present — Whalen, P.J., Smith, NeMoyer, Curran and Scudder, JJ.
