Oregon Administrative Rule OAR 813 § 813-027-0030 establishes the procedures through which the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department may distribute funds from the Manufactured Dwelling Parks Preservation Fund. Awards may be made directly by the department director without a formal application, or through either a first-come, first-reviewed process or a competitive review process. Applicants pursuing the non-direct award tracks must submit a proposal using the form and format the Department prescribes.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators or organizations seeking funding from the Manufactured Dwelling Parks Preservation Fund under OAR 813 § 813-027-0030 generally track which award pathway the Department has opened—direct award, first-come/first-reviewed, or competitive—since each pathway carries different submission requirements. For application-based pathways, compliant applicants prepare proposals in the Department's prescribed form and supply all content the Department identifies as required. Staying current with Department announcements helps ensure a submission is complete and ready to proceed to closing under the applicable process.

OAR 813 § 813-027-0030 governs how preservation funding that can protect manufactured dwelling parks becomes available, which may affect housing stability for residents of those parks. Tenants living in manufactured dwelling communities can monitor whether their park's ownership or management is pursuing a preservation award, as such funding is intended to support the continued availability of that housing. Tenant-rights organizations and Oregon Housing and Community Services can be resources for understanding how the Manufactured Dwelling Parks Preservation Fund award process may relate to a particular park.
