The City Council on Wednesday will consider measures to notify the state gaming board of the city’s legalization of video gambling, to create a public review period for pending retail tobacco licenses and to begin the process of establishing a pilot program to let residents report commercial vehicles blocking sidewalk, bus and bicycle access.

The council will also consider an appointment to the Community Development Commission and multiple large settlements tied to wrongful convictions. Finally, the council will have the opportunity to try to overturn Mayor Brandon Johnson’s veto of an ordinance to limit the sale of intoxicating hemp products. The council meets at 10 a.m.
