Oregon's Planned Community Act (ORS Chapter 94) governs most planned communities, while condominiums are governed by the Oregon Condominium Act (ORS Chapter 100). Oregon imposes detailed requirements around member meeting access, financial disclosure, and reserve studies. Self-managed boards in Oregon benefit from a relatively clear statutory framework but must be diligent about annual financial reporting and reserve obligations.
