The most easterly alignment was the vie selected. He also indicated 0lans for the construction of impr•vermnts at County Road 61 and Highway !2 as well ai a frontage road crossing I-494 to Parker's Lake Road. 122- 0 Special Council Meeting April 23, 1979 Page 123 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. 123- Special Council Meeting April 23, 1979 Page 124 Manayer Vallis reviewed the sideyard variance request for David A.
