OAR 813, division 9, is promulgated to accomplish the general purpose of ORS 90.800 through 90.840 and 456.579 to 456.581, which authorize the Housing and Community Services Department to provide certain assistance to qualified tenants' associations, tenants’ association supported nonprofit organizations, and Facility Purchase Associations in purchasing their Manufactured Dwelling Park.
