You ask some tough questions (Bonus question: Who said: “So does a jury”?).
I figure that Markham had the idea for his revolutionary new City long ago. He recently drew up his plans over a few weeks while Bo was away. Bo always sponsored him, so Elliott assumed, incorrectly, that he could get the wife’s permission. Bo was obviously furious, but I don’t think Markham expected that reaction. “You really are a Philistine, aren’t you? All you care about is money. This is the most revolutionary idea I’ve ever had“. So I don’t think killing Bo was Plan A.
Perhaps Bo traveled for a couple of months and Markham had already started a project and just added Williamson City to it.

That’s the best I can come up with.
I don't think Bo always sponsored him. He designed a summer home (I think) for Bo and his wife and his wife became a big fan of Markham's work. He used the wife to get the wheels in motion and I guess hoped Bo would agree? Doesn't sound right.
