Default Sewage Water For Sanibel Area Golf Courses

Friday evening we were exploring the new Sanibel area in our golf cart and were shocked by the strong sewage smell apparently eminating from the new golf course areas which were being watered. Saturday when visiting the Villages "final phase " new open houses in the area I questioned a sales rep about the smell and was told:
Yes they are using reclaimed sewage water;
Don't know why they still have the smell;
All new courses are going to use that water and " thats the price you pay
to live on the new courses".

Anybody else notice the same smelly problem recently, or did we just hit it on a bad night? We were considering a new build in the area, but now????
