OAR 918 § 918-600-0010 means that the park where a manufactured dwelling is sited must have been designed and built to meet Oregon's minimum safety standards under the Specialty Code. Residents who observe conditions that appear to fall short of basic safety standards in park design or construction may have grounds to raise concerns with Oregon's Building Codes Division.
