of competent jurisdiction to protect the public health or welfare
and the developer is otherwise ready, willing and able to proceed
with said development, the running of the period of approval under
this chapter or under any act repealed by this chapter, as the case
may be, shall be suspended for the period of time said legal action
is pending or such directive or order is in effect.
