Impact analysis
Choosing the incumbent firm means no added cost beyond the existing roughly $20,000/month flat fee; independent firms quoted $185-$300/hour.
Taxpayers save money if the work truly fits the existing flat fee; the incoming council gets legal support.
TAC members who wanted independent counsel say the perception of conflict undermines trust in the transition.
