If it was true that this was due to a federal mandate then why isn't every municipality doing it?

Same reason that not every business in America has been forced to comply with the ADA (Americans With Disabilities Act). We don't have enough lawyers.

It's just a matter of time, though. There are more lawyers in law school than there are practicing law today.

That's a mighty discouraging thought. I think we have some 600,000 practicing lawyers the last time that I looked, and over 2,000,000 people employed in the legal area.

Ballooning that already too-large number further is just an impediment as far as I am concerned.
