Navigating Manufactured Home Park Rule Changes
Park rules directly shape your daily life, community environment, and property rights. Under Oregon law, manufactured home park landlords cannot change rules arbitrarily.
Not legal advice. OSTA is educational advocacy, not a law firm. This page is general information for Oregon manufactured dwelling park and marina tenancies — you own the home and rent the space (ORS 90.505–90.850). It does not apply to apartment or other standard ORS 90.100–90.465 rentals. It is not legal advice. Talk with an attorney about your situation.
ORS 90.610 provides clear guidelines on how proposed rule changes must be introduced, giving residents a direct voice in whether new rules take effect. Read ORS Chapter 90
How the Rule Change Process Works
Landlords must follow strict statutory procedures when proposing changes or additions to existing park rules.
Written Notice Requirement
A landlord must deliver formal written notice showing the exact existing text and the proposed additions or deletions.
30-Day Window
The notice must specify a deadline date—at least 30 days from delivery—by which tenants may submit written objections.
Eligible Voting Spaces
Only active tenancies in the facility qualify as “eligible spaces” for voting purposes.
