"Table" implies a state of rest or inaction. Not necessarily. It looks to me more like a misuse of "table" when they really meant "postpone." Especially when they included a specified time (even though the time was far beyond the period for which a motion could be legitimately postponed).

I don't know if zoning boards can form special committees, but that would be the natural way to delay consideration until the prerequisite conditions exist. The committee would be responsible for monitoring the required information sources, and so long as they were considering the question, they'd need not fear the frumious¹ quarterly interval. __________ ¹ of or pertaining to the bandersnatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
