These councillors were always going try and delay the vote again the next time it comes up in council (tomorrow).
The last time the extension was voted down it was unclear if the deal would be pulled off the table by CSEC if they voted to extend. Seems prudent to know exactly what would happen to the deal if council did decide to extend public engagement.
Also puts CSEC in a difficult position. Say no and the critics will say they are trying to force the deal through. Say yes and it gives time for those against the deal to turn more people against it.
