MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 <br />(Mayor /Council Report - Continued) <br />• Flint indicated there was an issue from Plymouth residents regarding the road be' <br />gar g being three <br />lanes wide. Flint said Orono residents would probably prefer three lanes as the road <br />carries alot of traffic. He feels it would be a mistake to upgrade the road inadequately. <br />Kelley clarified that the desire is for a middle turn lane_ He questioned whether the cost <br />sharing should be negotiated with Plymouth due to the amenities being included. Flint <br />noted that the Orono residents also want the trail to be constructed. He had noted that <br />the residences on the Plymouth side are closer to the road and appreciate the trail being <br />located there. <br />Gappa indicated that the cost share requires Council_ approval. He suggested a possible <br />joint public hearing for comments and for approval by both Councils. <br />Jabbour noted there are many smaller lots in Plymouth than in Orono. <br />Kelley said the intersection at CoRd 6 is of most importance to him. He noted there is a <br />steep slope at the intersection and asked how much of it will be regraded. Gappa <br />indicated that the entire approach to Ferndale will be regraded. He said CoRd 6 is not <br />part of this particular project. Kelley asked if fill would be required to be brought in. <br />Gappa said it would for the landing zone. Kelley was informed that the landing zone <br />• would be about 50.75'. Cook said it would depend on the impact on the area. <br />Gappa noted that the road improvement would affect 100 homes in Orono and 300 <br />homes in Plymouth. <br />Kelley felt additional traffic would be traveling to the golf course. Flint said the western <br />portion of Wayzata would also use this road. <br />Gappa indicated the next step in the process is the feasibility report. <br />Jabbour asked Moor.Se to speak with members of the Plymouth Council to determine the <br />appropriate time for a joint meeting to be held as soon as possible. <br />Jabbour noted the engineers and Mn/00T will be in attendance at the Thursday meeting <br />regarding stormwater management. <br />CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT <br />City Attorney Barrett had no report. <br />( * #19) LICENSES <br />• There were no license applications. <br />29 <br />
