Okay. Maybe we could use some native grass that would therefore need less water, and “mow” the lawn using sheep / goats ?

For land resource, I think it would be good to keep the golf courses as vegetation areas. There are enough useless parking lot acres anyway to repurpose !

And of course this would make it cheaper. I think the exclusivity also depends a lot on the course already, I used to go to public primary school here in France and we had golf one trimester every year, financed entirely by the (free) public school’s budget.
