OAR 813 § 813-027-0020
Eligibility for Moneys from Fund
Operative Text
The Department may disburse moneys in the Manufactured Dwelling Parks Preservation Fund by grant, loan or otherwise as the Department determines appropriate, subject to the availability of funds and to limitations otherwise prescribed by law, to a community organization or a tenant group to facilitate the organization’s or group’s acquisition of a manufactured dwelling park.
Under OAR 813 § 813-027-0020, Oregon's Department of Housing and Community Development has the authority to distribute money from the Manufactured Dwelling Parks Preservation Fund to eligible community organizations or tenant groups. These funds can be provided as grants, loans, or in other forms the Department deems appropriate, as long as money is available and the distribution complies with applicable law. The purpose of this funding is to help such organizations or groups purchase a manufactured dwelling park.

OAR 813 § 813-027-0020 does not directly regulate landlord conduct, but it is relevant to manufactured dwelling park owners because it establishes a funding mechanism that could enable tenant groups or community organizations to pursue park acquisition. Operators who are aware of this provision generally understand that tenants or outside organizations may have access to state financial support when seeking to purchase a park. Familiarity with this rule can help park owners anticipate and navigate potential acquisition discussions.
