I suppose there is a familiarity penalty for people who've never administered a colony project, but management is different for every kind of project. You don't need a specialized skill for each kind of enterprise you can manage.

I don't mean the resources required, I mean City planning aspect. Which looks like professional skill.

The idea is "If we put houses here, street here, bridge here. Stop sign here, stop lights there, businesses here... this will maximize the space and keep traffic low, while not bothering these people with high speed collisions that kill kids..." etc.

The skill for that.
