CRANBERRY TWP — The township may be getting a new residential development for adults ages 55 and older.

The township planning commission Monday night voted to recommend to the supervisors the development plans for a Traditions of America retirement community with 103 homes.

The development is proposed in two phases for a 55.1 acre property on the north side of Rochester Road, bordering New Sewickley Township, Beaver County, to the west.

Also included in the plans are two small parks, sidewalks on Rochester Road and a private community center, which would have a pool, a bar and an exercise facility.

The residents of the community would buy their houses, but the grounds and roads would be owned and maintained by a homeowner's association.
