Councilmember Spaeth expressed concern that the proposed alignment
of County Road 61 would require. the removal of at least one resi-
dential structure not anticipated by the City of Plymouth, and
further that the alignment would provide numerous driveway accesses
to this primary roadway.
Louncilmember Hoyt questioned ;rhy the easterly route was selected
S this will affect the ability o` children to walk to Sunset
fills Elementary School. She spoke in favor of the center
alig,iment.
Councilmember Spaeth indir4 ted that if they desired to run County
Road 61 through the residential area of Minnetonka that was fine,
but we don't care to do that in Plymoutt..
Councilmember Neils was concerned about the potential damage to
residential property in Plymouth. He also asked what the plans
were to extend County Road 61 south of Highway 12. He further
indicated that Plymouth has no interest in upgrading County Road
61 until the interchange of I-494 and County Road 15 is completed.
Mr. Knutson indicated that was scheduled for 1981. Mr. Knutson
also indicated that the proposed interchange at Parker's takE
Road and Highway 12 was now being moved easterly about one block
and showed preliminary plans on how this improvement would affect
the alignment of new County Road 15 north into Plymouth.
The Council expressed concern about how new County Road 15 would
intersect with existing County Road 15 and further suggested
that the developer follow the previously proposed alignment as
it intersects with old County Road 15 b.vst of I-494.
In summary, Mayor Hunt indicated if Minnetonka desires to use
the easterly alignment of County Road 61, that is fine, but
they should be prepared to acquire the residential properties.
Plymouth is not interested in acquiring residential properties
for this alignment. In addition, we are concerned about the
safety problems on that segment of the road in Minnetonka due
to numerous driveways and intersecting streets. He suggested
that the center alignment be more seriously considered.
Mr. Knutson indicatcd that he understands from Hennepin County
officials that County Road 61 from Highway 12 to County Road 9
has top priority from the County.
Mayor Hunt asked Councilmembers Spaeth and Neils, along with
City Planner Tremere, to be a committee to meet with officials
of Minnetonka and Hennepin County to discuss and hopefully
resolve the alignment issue of County Road 61 ar,O report back
to Council.
