What do you think a good solution is? You can't FORCE them to lease right of way from BNSF (or force BNSF to lease it to RTD). They most assuredly can't purchase additional ROW to build the rest of the route out (especially since BNSF won't sell it and that's the route they promised). Should they give all the money back? I mean, it shouldn't be ALL the money, though, right? Since everyone voted to fund multiple projects? So maybe figure out what percentage of revenue was expected to pay for the B line and refund only that amount? Would that be enough?
