The attorneys are representing the city for free.
True, but they will still have to pay the plaintiff's costs when they lose.

Skirts awfully close to allowing a private organization access to the political structure and power of elected officials -- for their own political gain.
The city claims to be doing it to protect vulnerable residents...from what, they don't say. The implication, obviously, is that CPL holders like to shoot the town up, so the city must stop them. Except...that doesn't ever happen. I suppose they could be trying to keep children safe from criminals, but generally speaking, criminals aren't called that because of their deep and profound respect for and obedience to laws.
Is the city really (intentionally or otherwise) asserting they need to protect citizens from state statutes and the state Constitution?
The courts have already decided against the city twice! What are they hoping for, third time's a charm?
