Haimy,camps are religious institutions? Just being operated by a yeshiva or shul doesn’t qualify. A shul/yeshiva owned home rented out to outsiders is subject to property taxes. Yeshiva operated catering halls in NYC got hit with hefty retroactive water bills last year . Just because a hall is part of a yeshiva doesn’t qualify it as a religious institution exempt from water bills.
Satmar/Kiryat Joel generally speaking doesn’t care about a politician’s position on abortion and gay rights as long as they deliver on unfettered political support of Satmar religious practices in Kiryat Joel and financial benefits
