He indicated that from a design and development prospective the east side of the Snelling and County Road B interchange is a separate and distinct problem from the west side of the interchange. He stated that a tentative agreement has been reached on the westerly half of the interchange design. It was his opinion that concurrent approval of the interchange design for both the east and west side of Snelling was not necessary. The west portion of the interchange design of the State Highway Department is acceptable to the County and the Village with some minor modifications. It is, therefore, recommended that the Village of Rosevi1le move inunediately to approve the westerly portion of the interchange design and pursue its early implementation. Mr. Shennan Winthrop, Attorney representing Mr. Knutson, stated that the state had advised him that they needed preliminaI)' approval on the interchange design to proceed ahead with final plans. He, therefore, urged the Village to approve the preliminary plans. Mr. Winthrop further indicated that he would like the opportuni ty to review the recommendation of Mr. Anderson as to temporary frontage roads, etc. Discussion Mr. Vern Johnson felt that the other effected parties in the area of the inter- change should have the opportunity to be heard before any final decisions are made on the interchange development. Recorrnnendation Mr. Kellett Moved and Mrs. Demos Seconded, that Richard Knutson's request for special use permit for a service station at 2151 North Snelling Avenue be laid over until the next regular Commission meeting and that tile Corrnnission recommend that the Village Council establish a joint meeting of the Cotmcil and the Connnission to discuss the proposed interchange.
