· Cura draws support next to every building
Just disable support. It looks like you don't need any for this print.
To answer your question though... when you create a surface in sketchup and then connect them together to make solids, you are supposed to tell sketchup which side faces air and which side faces inside (solid). If the surface is white then good. The gray side should face inwards. If you see any gray surfaces or walls in your model then just right click them and click "reverse faces".
Not doing this means that sketchup is confusing cura about that surfaces are inside and what surfaces are outside. This confuses cura about where things need support. Add to that the "support horizontal expansion" feature and you get these support "walls".
