Jinn said he also talked to Dave Leveille, and he is <br /> not opposed to a land swap, and he also is not averse to swapping land bank property if <br /> that is allowable. Dave said if it is land bank property, it may not require a vote of Town <br /> Meeting, but that would have to be looked into.
