Overview
- Override votes are scheduled for Thursday on 17 measures, while vetoes on COPA, a multibedroom affordable housing requirement, and CCRB body‑camera access will remain.
- COPA will not advance after supporters fell short of the 34 votes required for an override following Law Department warnings about constitutionality plus sustained real‑estate opposition.
- The CCRB footage bill lost momentum after its former sponsor left the Council, with several members reversing support under pressure from the Police Benevolent Association.
- Measures slated for revival include raising street vending license caps, barring a federal immigration office on Rikers Island, and banning wrongful deactivations by for‑hire platforms.
- The speaker’s office says it will call only sure‑win overrides and expects more overrides in one meeting than in the last decade combined.
