MANDATORY MEDIATION AND INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION IN OREGON

Mediation may be initiated by a Landlord, a Tenant or Group of Tenants. Mandatory mediation compels parties to meet at least once and suspends any court action until completion of the mandatory mediation. This is an opportunity for parties, with the aid of a trained, neutral third party, to speak openly and develop practical solutions that are mutually satisfying.

In Mediation, Parties at Manufactured Parks agree to:

• ​attend at least one session,
  
• have written authority to make binding decisions,
  
• meet, or may be subject to a fine,
  
• make requests prior to landlord filing legal action.​
  

​This process halts court action until mediation concludes.
