An Oregon Insignia of Compliance is a label placed near the primary entrance into the vehicle. When new, the insignia is green in color and on newer vehicles the insignia may be blue in
color. Some insignia may be faded depending on exposure.
Inspection requests must be made by completing an Inspection and Insignia Request Application and mailing or faxing the form to the Building Codes Division prior to offering the recreational vehicle
for sale. Dealers may also schedule inspections with the Building Codes Division by calling (503) 373-7542. Use the voice mail system to leave your name, number and a detailed message
for the inspector in your area.
To assist Oregon dealers, inspectors may visit each retail sales lot at least quarterly.

Park Trailer Disclosures OAR 918-525-0045
The 1997 Oregon Legislative Assembly passed a bill which directly impacts your business. The bill was Senate Bill 82, commonly referred to as the "disclosure law". The bill requires
that every dealer of a new park trailer over 8 -1/2 feet wide to present to each potential buyer a State disclosure statement for review and signature prior to any sale. The disclosure is
required to address three topics; permitted uses, wind and flood protection and snow and ice protection. The disclosure requirements went into effect on July 1, 1998.
Dealers and distributors shall present each potential buyer of a new park trailer with a Division disclosure statement to read and sign prior to the completion of the sales contract of any new
park trailer over 8-1/2 feet wide. Prior to presenting disclosures to potential buyers and prior to any sale, dealers and distributors shall complete the disclosure in writing indicating the
date, dealer's or distributor's name, address and the Building Codes Division license number. Dealers and distributors shall give one signed copy of the disclosure to the buyer and
retain one signed copy in the dealer's and distributor's files for not less than five years from the date of sale. Copies of signed disclosures shall be made available to the Division upon
request.
Dealers or distributors may reprint the Division's disclosure form or include the Division's disclosure statement within their own sales contract. If a dealer or distributor prints its own
disclosure, the content shall be identical to the Division's disclosure statement and shall have not less than 11 point type size.
