There is no restriction on the number of persons 19-54 living here. There is a requirement that 80% of the homes must be owned by a person age 55+. Your neighbor's home sounds like it is owned by a senior. But I could own my home and have many young adults living in it and still be in full compliance and count toward the 80% number. I believe the only regulation TV has is that they will only issue 4 ID cards per address not that you cannot have more than 4 in the home.

As to what you can do about the 12 year old if she is a resident not a visitor.. if they are quiet and not disturbing you, one choice is to say hello and feel sorry for that child having to living in a community with no other children because of family or economic problems. Or you can complain to Community Standards after 30 days and ask for direction on how this issue can be resolved to your satisfaction. 352-751-3912

You can also email deedcompliance@districtgov.org Should you do so your email is subject to public disclosure if you care.

Here is the language on https://www.districtgov.org/departme...andardsFAQ.pdf

"Deed restrictions are declarations between the [Developer] and the Property Owner. Who can enforce the deed restrictions?
o Any property owner of any lot may seek to enforce external and internal restrictions against another property owner.
o The [Developer] may seek to enforce external and internal restrictions.
o The Village Community Development Districts through adopted Rule may enforce certain EXTERNAL restrictions that have been adopted by each Board to enforce as authorized by Chapter 190 of Florida Statutes.
...
If you have a concern regarding internal deed restrictions such as underage children in the home, business in the home or the like, contact the Community Standards Department at 352-751-3912 or email deedcompliance@districtgov.org and the information will be forwarded to the Developer to address. "

Notice that only the Developer is involved in internal restrictions. [I have changed the word Declarant to its equivalent = Developer] Rumor has it that the Developer has shown little or no interest in addressing this issue in the past.

Our streets are public and there is no prohibition on overnight parking unless the parking impedes emergency vehicles.
I don’t think that is right. Why should it be allowed? Can’t us 55 and older have anything to ourselves? If I wanted to live around “families “ I would have just moved to a regular neighborhood. I didn’t realize say a mom in her 60’s can by a home and have like 3 of her adult children live with her! Why bother calling it a 55 and older community? Misleading and I am disappointed. Why pay for these extras when anyone can use them now.
