HERE IS A PROBLEM SITUATION
Today, Golf courses are closed to dry out.
Ponds are being lowered by running irrigation on golf courses.
Adding more water daily.
That delays reopening for many weeks.
People are understanding, but they are not happy.

HERE IS A SOLUTION
What if everyone who uses pond water for irrigation (south areas only) were granted free use of that water for the month?
People would irrigate their lawns.
Pond levels would soon return to normal.
Golf courses would dry out very quickly without all that extra irrigation running continuously.

Golf could reopen in a week. That generates MONEY
People are happy playing golf again.
Everybody else is happy watering their lawns with free pond water.
