Boston City Councilor Michelle Wu is calling for further action after news that a former city official agreed to plead guilty for accepting bribes in exchange for influencing a member of the city's Zoning Board of Appeal.

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh on Thursday ordered an independent review of the ZBA.

But Wu says that review "misses the point" — and ignores more immediate steps that could be taken to determine whether any ZBA board members were involved in a bribery scheme.
