We Empower Park and Marina Residents
If you are an Oregon park or marina resident who owns their home, but rents the space or slip in which your home is located, then we are here for you.
OSTA is your support network, a trusted source of information about your rights, and your advocate for more secure housing through improved legislation.
Through these efforts and initiatives, we enhance your quality of life.
CAN’T AFFORD THE RECENT RENT INCREASES?
HB 3054 For Lower Rent Increases
HB 3054 seeks to lower the rent increase cap, currently at 10%. If the bill passes it will lower the increases to the annual Cost of Living Adjustment. Great News for seniors in parks and marinas.
It will also provide protections against demands for interior inspections, requests for aesthetic improvements and will cap the rent reset, when selling a home, to an increase of 10% of the current rent.
How to support HB 3054
Reach out to the legislative committee on Housing and Homelessness. Tell them how these increases affect you and that you want them to support this bill.
After the HB3054 Moves to the House in February, contact your district representative to ask them to support the bill.

On the day that we do discover that we are not alone, our society may begin to evolve and transform in some incredible and wondrous new ways.
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
OSTA provides support, tools, and resources for park and marina tenants at every step in their journey.
