But it seems like local FFL's send it in anyway...at least they used to, and you would not know if they had unless you asked

At this point, I'm not sure I'll buy another firearm within Lincoln city limits again, CHP exemption notwithstanding.

Probably because the wording says it's not "necessary" to report it, not that they shouldn't report it. What business does Lincoln have in knowing what firearms I buy? Fortunately, I've only bought one inside the city limits, and don't even have that one anymore.
I'm very tempted to make it to the council meeting for Monday, and ask the council what this gun registry is being used for and why they think they need it.

This ordinance is one of the reasons the Derek moved DE Guns out of Lincoln City Limits.

I figured it was so they could create the outdoor ranges, but that makes sense. What a dumb and completely useless law.
Range Mom:
They use this registry to find firearms owners who have illegally purchased a firearm under the Lincoln City Ordinances. You can be perfectly legal outside of city limits, but be a prohibited person within city limits.
Someone on desk duty goes through the "registry" and looks up each person to see if they have any one of the many misdemeanors in Lincoln that result in your loss of the right to own, transport or possess.

Which does absolutely no good if someone goes just outside of town and buys one, or if they buy from another individual. Again, this law is dumb and completely useless.
