landuse=grass should be landcover=grass.

Hmm, can you clarify more? From what I read on the wiki, landcover is not an approved thing yet (even though grass and wood are being used quite a bit) and from what I read on landuse=grass, these areas fit that exactly.

Well, the landuse would be more like highway, since it's a highway infield, but the land cover is grass.

Comment from Dulahey
Oh. I agree there. I had only noticed the area around the detention basin west of the Walmart.
As for the grass near highways, I struggled with that one. I agree it should be highway use, but looking at Wakefield, England, which was recommended to use as an example for newbies, they have mapped right up to the pavement in most areas. Usually with landuse=grass or scrub. I actually had grass all along the highway RoW in lots of other areas, but got rid of it after seeing some discussion about landuse=highway.

Comment from Baloo Uriza
I'm not opposed to landuse=highway, and I'm on the fence about landuse versus landcover for grass. Though for forests, landuse versus landcover, while they may be congruent, can be very different things, for example, when the grove of trees is for forestry products, something that came up a lot when I was in Salem, Oregon thanks to the surrounding environs. Likewise, with the next county over from that producing the majority of the world's grass seed and sod, there's huge farms that are basically giant lawns because the crop is literally lawn grass.
