As I posted an explanatory comment to the Starbuck's article after promptly receiving a response from the City, I got to wondering just how much does the City of Woodstock pay for our out-sourced City Attorney. And could the City hire an experienced legal staff as Employees, pay their benefits (often 30% of pay) and still save money?
How much would a consultant charge to evaluate the savings, if any, available to the City? Or could the City's Financial Director handle it?
Does anyone know how much the City of Woodstock paid in 2007 to the law firm in Crystal Lake that handles the City's legal issues? Does the City get cost/benefit analyses from the law firm, when it considers taking a stand on an issue?
You never know who is interested…
