OAR 918 § 918-600-0020
Permit Required
Operative Text
No person, firm or corporation shall establish, construct, enlarge, or alter any mobile home or manufactured dwelling park or cause the same to be done without first obtaining all required permits from issuing authority and paying the prescribed permit fee.
Oregon Administrative Rule OAR 918 § 918-600-0020 establishes that any establishment, construction, enlargement, or alteration of a mobile home or manufactured dwelling park must be preceded by obtaining all required permits from the relevant issuing authority and paying the associated permit fees. The rule applies to individuals, firms, and corporations alike, and no work of this nature may legally begin without these prerequisites being met. The provision functions as a gatekeeping requirement, ensuring that regulatory oversight is in place before any such development or modification proceeds.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and developers of mobile home or manufactured dwelling parks in Oregon must secure all required permits from the appropriate issuing authority and pay the prescribed fees before undertaking any establishment, construction, enlargement, or alteration of a park, as mandated by OAR 918 § 918-600-0020. Compliant operators typically verify which permits apply to their specific project scope, submit complete applications in advance, and retain documentation of permit approvals and fee payments. Proceeding without the required permits exposes a firm or corporation to potential regulatory action under this rule.

OAR 918 § 918-600-0020 requires that any mobile home or manufactured dwelling park be properly permitted before it is established, constructed, enlarged, or altered, which means residents have an interest in knowing whether the park where they live or plan to live has met these baseline regulatory requirements. Tenants who have concerns about whether a park was developed or modified without required permits may consider contacting Oregon's building codes division or the relevant local issuing authority to inquire about permit records. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with manufactured dwelling regulations can also help residents understand what avenues exist for raising concerns related to this provision.
