The biggest problems with the roving radio comm centers is desense.
With all the antennas ganged up on the roof of such a small area they

Not if the comm center is properly designed. *The techniques for
siting multiple transmitters/receivers in confined areas and
minimizing mutual interference are pretty well established.

If that is a real worry, each local amateur radio group can
check it out for themselves...base-mobile-handheld, any
combination they can operate on/in. There is really a
great freedom in amateur radio to convene such a group
for a real test at equipment distances on same or different
bands using different RF output powers. That will yield
data that can be of good use later in real emergencies.
