   Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The defendant, the town of East Haven, appeals from the judgment of the trial court declaring certain properties owned by the plaintiff, the city of New Haven, located within the defendant’s borders and used in connection with Tweed-New Haven Airport (airport), to be tax exempt pursuant to General Statutes §§ 12-74and 12-81.The defendant levied taxes on the plaintiffs property located within the defendant’s borders after determining that the property had lost its tax exempt status under § 12-74 upon being leased by the plaintiff to the Tweed-New Haven Airport Authority (airport authority).* **

The defendant claims that the lease between the plaintiff and the airport authority triggered all three the exceptions to tax exemption enumerated in § 12-74. Specifically, the defendant argues that: (1) the lease between the plaintiff and the airport authority evidenced the plaintiffs intent to utilize the airport as source of profit; (2) by virtue of the lease, the defendant does not have the same privileges as the plaintiff with respect to the use of the airport; and (3) the airport authority constitutes a “person, association or private corporation” within the meaning of § 12-74. The defendant also claims that the trial court improperly declined to render a judgment declaring the respective rights, duties and obligations of the parties pursuant to the Tweed-New Haven Airport Authority Act, General Statutes § et seq.

“Our examination of the record and briefs and our consideration of the arguments of the parties persuade us that the judgment of the trial court should be affirmed. The issues were resolved properly in the trial court’s . . . well reasoned memorandum of decision. [New Haven v. East Haven, 47 Conn. Sup. 594, 822 A.2d 376 (2001)]. Because that memorandum of decision fully addresses all arguments raised in this appeal, we adopt it as a proper statement of the issues and the applicable law concerning those issues. It would serve no useful purpose for us to repeat the discussion contained therein.” (Citation omitted.) Davis v. Freedom of Information Commission, 259 Conn. 45, 55-56, 787 A.2d 530 (2002).

The judgment is affirmed. 
      
       The defendant appealed from the judgment of the trial court to the Appellate Court, and we transferred the appeal to tills court pursuant to General Statutes § 51-199 (c) and Practice Book § 65-1.
     
      
       General Statutes § 12-74 provides: “All property owned by any town or city, which is located in another town and used for the purposes of an airport, shall be exempt from taxation so long as it continues to be used for such purposes and so long as the town in which it is located has the same privileges as to the use of such airport as are possessed by the municipality owning the same; but, if any such airport is leased to any person, association or private coiporation, or is used in such manner as to become a source of profit to the municipality owning the same, the land so occupied and situated in any adjoining town or towns shall thereupon be subject to taxation.”
     
      
       General Statutes § 12-81 provides in relevant part: “The following-described property shall be exempt from taxation:
      * * *
