( #15) COUNTY ROAD 15 RECONSTRUCTION PLAN County representatives presented a layout of the County Road 15 plan for reconstruction. County was asked by Staff for a conceptual plan for either major maintenance or reconstruction. Council for direction regarding the two options. The City's share of the cost will be in the right -of -way acquisition as the County's design is rural with no curb or gutter. Goetten was concerned with the turn lanes presenting problems with speeding and passing. One option was to move the road 8' north at Orono Orchard due to the impact • on the area. A major turn lane area runs from Orono Orchard to Woodhill with another turn lane at Hillside Drive. The County representative will look at the encroachment areas and provide Orono with an appraisal and estimate of their costs. There are several areas where unsuitable materials are located which could prompt additional mitigation requiring more right -of- way. Temporary easements may be needed in some areas. The County representative said the speed limit on the road is currently 50 mph with a design speed of 35 mph at the curve near Orono Orchard Road. Hurr asked the County to look at mitigation of wetland. Hurr felt the general public would be in favor of the project. 7abbour asked for the input of the City of Wayzata.
