Full Answer

Does Clapp Golf Course have a well?

About $102,000 of that was for water — twice as much as any other course — because Clapp is the only course that doesn’t have a well or a lake and has to be watered entirely with city drinking water.

Will closing Clapp save money?

Shutting down Clapp would save substantial money on watering and mowing, because it wouldn’t need to be as meticulously maintained, Houtman said. But even with closing Clapp, the system will need to cut more expenses through layoffs, rolling blackouts at all courses and employee furloughs in the wintertime.
