Monty planned the base, which is good. He had some resources and crew to build at least part of said planned base, but despite it, he failed, leading to a base with lots of empty spaces right beside it. And when given the method to do it to at least a great extent, he didn't take advantage of it.

Sure, he's not entirely and only to blame. The writers, on their part, could have thought of some way to help with that while following his plans. A small explanation during a class, for example; Even if forced, at least it fits the situation. And of course, they couldn't do everything right away. However, Monty was the director, as such everything about RWBY was his responsibility, everything good and everything bad.
