the wiki page {1]. landuse=public has been used 300 times and with other
extensions to public like public_administration it has over 400 uses.
landuse=government and other extensions have been used 177 times.
Government facilities, at least in the US, comprise a significant amount of
real estate. They should be separated as such.
A tagging scheme could include landuse=public + public=admin_level_2 -
admin_level_10 (to normalize terms between countries)
Either fit in with other landuse times, like religious, military, school,
etc. (It doesn't fit with landuse=grass - but lets stay off that mess)
They may not render, but that just a rendering decision.
Best,
Clifford
