The City Council will meet Wednesday for its final regularly scheduled meeting before the Feb. 28 municipal election when Chicagoans will vote for mayor, aldermen and the newly created police district councils. 

While Wednesday’s agenda is light, aldermen are set to consider proposals that would add a new city offense for assaulting paramedics and another that would grant an $800,000 payment to settle a lawsuit brought by the family of a man who was fatally struck by a city tow truck driver at O’Hare International Airport. Aldermen are also expected to vote on a controversial expansion by Norfolk Southern Railway.
