I'm actually pretty familiar with (and impressed) on how TV is designed, from a flood control/drainage perspective. There are some things they could do though, that would allow them to develop additional homesites, should they decide to eliminate some golf holes. It's pretty obvious, that they have a very competent civil engineering division, so it wouldn't be all that hard to develop more buildable land - after removing portions of golf courses.
