OSTA Review 2026
There are some new tools in the park’s organizing arsenal for residents. In addition to having PDFs available of ORS 90, the revised 2025 version, and the companion piece, which is a summary of the various sections, we also have a 2025 Guide to Organizing a Tenants Association.
Thanks to Mindy Bachmeier, our District Director for Linn, Benton and Marion/Polk County area, we now have a compilation book of all our most helpful resources, handouts, templates and forms. It is the 2025 OSTA Park and Marina Resident Handbook, just off the press. We have a PDF of the document, of course, and hard copies are also available. They’re designed to be printed once and photocopied as needed for the items in the book
You will also find information about safe water standards, thoughts from Matthew Johnson, one of our board members, on the Mediation Process, and some guidelines.
