Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Dismantlers renew without local approval

Motor vehicle dismantlers can renew their certificates without local government approval. They must pay the renewal fee, complete the application, and keep a current bond. Certificates remain valid for two years. This renewal change takes effect 91 days after Oregon's 2026 regular legislative session adjourns.

More organizations recognized as transit providers

The law expands which organizations are recognized as public transportation providers and can qualify under state transportation rules. It includes counties with no area inside a mass transit or transportation district, and government partnerships serving those counties. It also includes mass transit districts, transportation districts, federally recognized Indian tribes, and government partnerships serving those tribes. These definitions take effect 91 days after Oregon's 2026 regular legislative session adjourns.

Dismantler approvals require notice for neighbors

Motor vehicle dismantlers need local approval for initial and supplemental certificates, based on the operator's suitability and location rules. Local governments can regulate new locations and expansions, including allowed zones and property size. They must consider nearby homes, gathering places, other dismantlers, and public health and safety. Before approving a supplemental certificate for a move, expansion, or added location, they must notify current or future neighboring property owners. Supplemental certificates carry a fee; no amount is specified here. These rules take effect 91 days after Oregon's 2026 regular legislative session adjourns.
