Cute but of course the municipality will do no such thing.
From the press release:
"This is not a prank" said Clements, "The Towne of Weare has five people on the Board of Selectmen. If three of them vote to use the power of eminent domain to take this land from Mr. Souter we can begin our hotel development."
Well, he said he only needs 3 out of 5 selectmen. It might be a little more complicated than that (planning board, countersuits, etc) but it might be worth it to push some folks to run for seats on that board. This is doable, I think.
