ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL May 11, 2009 24 <br /> Councilmember McClung clarified that there were two requests, the appropriation <br /> request for engineering assistance and the second one is a request for <br /> Congresswoman McCollum that this project be included in the reauthorization of <br /> the Federal Transportation Bill, which is reviewed every five years.
