ORS § 90 § 90.720
In addition to the tenant’s cause of action under ORS 90.710, any tenant prevented from exercising the rights in ORS 90.750 or 90.755 may bring an action in the appropriate court having jurisdiction in the county in which the alleged infringement occurred, and upon favorable adjudication, the court shall enjoin the enforcement of any provision contained in any bylaw, rental agreement, regulation or rule, pertaining to a facility, which operates to deprive the tenant of these rights.

Plain English

Oregon Revised Statutes § 90.720 establishes a court-based remedy for manufactured-dwelling or floating-home park tenants whose rights under ORS 90.750 (tenant organizing rights) or ORS 90.755 (right to purchase) are interfered with. When a court rules in the tenant's favor, it must issue an injunction blocking enforcement of any bylaw, rental agreement, regulation, or rule that was used to deprive the tenant of those rights. This remedy exists alongside, not instead of, the separate cause of action available under ORS 90.710.

For Property Managers

Under ORS § 90.720, facility operators and managers are expected to ensure that no provision in their bylaws, rental agreements, or park rules is applied in a way that restricts tenants' organizing or purchase-opportunity rights under ORS 90.750 or 90.755. A compliant operator regularly reviews governing documents to confirm that no language could be construed as limiting those statutory rights. Courts that find a violation are required to enjoin the offending provision, which can affect the enforceability of broader sections of a rental agreement or park rules.

For Tenants

ORS § 90.720 gives tenants in manufactured-dwelling or floating-home parks a direct path to court if a landlord's rules, bylaws, or rental agreement terms are being used to block the rights guaranteed by ORS 90.750 or 90.755. If a court rules in the tenant's favor, it is required to enjoin—that is, legally prohibit—enforcement of the offending provision. Tenants exploring this remedy may find it useful to consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with Oregon manufactured-housing law or to review resources provided by Oregon's courts to understand how to file in the appropriate county.
