DMay enforce the restriction if it applies only to short-term rentals

Explanation

HOAs are subject to the Fair Housing Act. Prohibiting families with children from renting (or purchasing) is discrimination based on familial status unless the community qualifies as 'housing for older persons' (55+ or 62+).
