From what I've read, it's not clear if the city will pay for the house moving and reinstallation, which would include sewer, etc., and that this plus the new lot is considered a payment/trade or if she will be compensated as well as the house being moved ?
I have the feeling she would have been more forthright about the proposed solution leaving her out of pocket if that was the case. It would have made a good additional argument for her against the move.... but speculating of course
