This seems to be the closest one could get to do nothing while still technically doing something. You do not need to hire an expensive consultant. We have been building duplexes and triplexes and quadplexs for decades.
This is going to be some lightly disguised graft mark my words. They will spend hundreds of thousands on this consultant to produce a plan of whicht they will make 10 and then forget about when the next charlatan or conman comes into town.
You know what they really need is a monorail.
