An ad-hoc committee is formed by a council or a school board usually to speed up a process, to come to a faster conclusion, or get to the bottom of something quickly., It is sanctioned by the governing body but it is more like a club, not an official committee. It sorts through all the permutations and presents the governing body as a whole, with the best ideas to vote on.
The “Peace and Nonviolence” monument park ad hoc committee did not operate that way. It overplayed its authority to justify one outcome.
