They could cut trees, they could plant saplings, they could have brought in mature palms or other trees. It ONLY matters what they DO AFTER they buy land. What they usually do after they buy land is move in GIANT EARTH MOVING equipment and TEAR the crappola out of anything animal or vegetable that gets in their way. Then they do homes and golf courses or WHATEVER they want. Lately, they have REALIZED that younger 50-year-olds are NOT quite as enamored by the large, long golf courses as other sports (like softball) and the shorter pitch and putt courses. So, they are bending to demand......like "bend the knee" in Game of Thrones. I hope this prevents my further getting misquoted.

Once again, you repeat the same false information...
They are building and have plans for 3-4 MORE Championship and 3-5 MORE Executive courses...
The current Pitch & putt and Putting courses were added in as a fill in for land that was too small for bigger courses. NOT because of a lagging interest in golf...
And they DO plant mature palms and all sorts of trees, bushes and other ground cover. The even do it on those dreaded championship and executive golf courses that no one plays on anymore, since they're too crowded (with a nod to Yogi...)
You would know that if you ever actually visited a golf course. But you'd rather make up nonsense...
Yes, they could buy cow pastures and replant them into a forest. IF THEY WERE INSANE... What developer anywhere would do such a foolish thing?
