COMMENTS
b(n+1)^2 - 14*(4*a(n))^2 = +1, n>=-1, with b(n)=A068203(n) gives all nonnegative integer solutions of this D=224 Pell equation.
For positive n, a(n) equals the permanent of the n X n tridiagonal matrix with 30's along the main diagonal, and i's along the superdiagonal and the subdiagonal (i is the imaginary unit). - John M. Campbell, Jul 08 2011
About first comment, more generally, for t(m) = m + sqrt(m^2-1) and u(n) = (t(m)^(n+1) - 1/t(m)^(n+1))/(t(m) - 1/t(m)), we can verify that ((u(n+1) - u(n-1))/2)^2 - (m^2-1)*u(n)^2 = 1. In this case is m=15. - Bruno Berselli, Nov 21 2011
For n>=0, a(n) equals the number of 01-avoiding words of length n on alphabet {0,1,...,29}. - Milan Janjic, Jan 26 2015

FORMULA
a(n) = S(n, 30) = U(n, 15), n>=-1, with Chebyshev polynomials of 2nd kind. See A049310 for the triangle of S(n, x) coefficients. S(-1, x) := 0 =: U(-1, x).
G.f.: 1/(1-30*x+x^2).
a(n) = ((15+4*sqrt(14))^(n+1) - (15-4*sqrt(14))^(n+1))/(8*sqrt(14)) (Binet form).
a(n) = sqrt((A068203(n+1)^2 - 1)/224), n>=-1.
a(n) = 30*a(n-1)-a(n-2) for n>0; a(-1)=0, a(0)=1. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 18 2008
a(n) = Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n} A101950(n,k)*29^k. - Philippe Deléham, Feb 10 2012
With an offset of 0, product {n >= 1} (1 + 1/a(n)) = 1/7*(7 + 2*sqrt(14)). - Peter Bala, Dec 23 2012
Product {n >= 2} (1 - 1/a(n)) = 1/15*(7 + 2*sqrt(14)). - Peter Bala, Dec 23 2012
