This unelected group decides what building of XXX age happen to be architecturally important enough to be preserved—others of the same age, based on their subjective view, DO merit protection.

This enelected group was chosen by the objectors as a last ditch attempt to block the building, since you support the objections you can't complain about the actions of a group of people that the objectors invited into the issue.
If that run down dump was such a wonderful historic piece of outstanding architecture that needed preserving for the sake of the city then why hadn't anyone bothered trying to get it listed before?

This is a case where what is being built, even who owns a structure should be 100% unknown to the committee for any sort of fairness.

Are you trying to say that the historians and architects unanimously rejected the application for preservation of this dump for some reason other than it was simply an unimportant structure?
