Isn't this the time when the Mayor steps up to the, I mean, skates up to
the face-off circle - no, wait, that's the Governor - rides into town and
says something like:

"Hear ye, hear ye!  I'm in charge here!  My people have spoken - their wish
is my command.  I have a plan that will make both sides happy, while
bringing more over-priced drugs to town like I have wanted all along.  You,
CVS, build something decent.  We know you're capable of it and that you're
quite rich.  And you, University UNITED, um, keep it down or I'll turn you
into newts!"?

Of course, I recognize He might have BETTER THINGS TO DO!   But come on,
Dude - saddle up the palomino, the sun is going down.

I'll cut CVS some slack.

It's entirely possible that someone, perhaps on the Planning Commish,
assured them that this was a slam dunk, and not to worry about it.  They
may have been told that there'll be a little noise, but it's no big deal
and it's the Planning Commish's job to get this through.

If they've done the right thing as close to Minneapolis, there's NO WAY
they wouldn't do it in Saint Paul if asked to.  Maybe a bit forcefully, or
maybe through a mind-numbing bureacratic series of hoops.  But it's clear
they'll do it.

So it's probably not their fault this is such a disaster.

My question is:  Whose fault is it?

It may or may not be important.  But if we want to prevent these kinds of
things in the future, and I'm right, it would be nice to know who the
idiot is.
