What Del Webb at Traditions Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

Del Webb at Traditions is an age-restricted, 55-and-older active-adult community in Wake and Franklin Counties, North Carolina, built by Pulte under its Del Webb brand. The rule that sets it apart from an ordinary HOA: it is legally operated as housing for older persons, so at least one resident of each home must be 55 or older, and life centers on shared recreational amenities. This recorded declaration also sets the usual architectural, assessment, and use rules.

• Age restriction (55+): At least one occupant of each occupied home must be 55 or older, and at all times at least 80% of occupied homes must have a 55+ resident. No one under 19 may stay overnight more than 90 days in a year. The association runs an annual age census, and owners must report any change in occupancy within 10 days or face daily fines.
• Buying, selling & leasing: Any lease or sale must be in writing, must state in conspicuous type that the community is for residents 55+, and must require at least one age-qualified (55+) occupant. Hardship exceptions can be requested from the board but are not guaranteed.
• Amenities & Activity Cards: Access to the clubhouse and recreational facilities is by Activity Card — up to two per home — issued to qualified residents and suspendable for unpaid assessments.
• Architectural review: Exterior changes, additions, and improvements need Architectural Review Committee approval before work begins, following the community's design guidelines.
• Assessments & fees: Owners pay regular assessments for the common areas and amenities, plus possible special, benefitted, and fine assessments; unpaid amounts become a lien on the home. The association may also bundle services like cable, internet, lawn care, and trash into community-wide contracts.
• Home type & shared maintenance: Homes are single-family, but the documents address party walls, shared walls, and shared drainage — so some homes are attached or closely spaced and share certain maintenance responsibilities with neighbors and the association.
• Developer control: While the community is still being built (the 'Development Period'), the developer appoints the board and holds extra votes — normal for a new Del Webb, but worth knowing if you expect fully resident-controlled governance.
