We’re returning next month and would like to spend some additional time in this area of concern.

Thanks.
Go out there in the late afternoon or evening when they are irrigating the lawns and golf courses. I'm sure you will smell it 2 out of 4 nights. We were in the area in late December and did not notice a smell, but it was definitely there a couple of nights the first week in January. It is a new sewerage plant and maybe they aren't treating the wastewater quite right for odors or maybe it is the fertlizer they are using on the courses and public areas.
If there is really an old land fill in the area, there probably is a real problem. It would be interesting to find out for sure.
