Effective October 11, 2023, LUBA is temporarily amending some of its administrative rules. These amendments apply to proceedings commenced both before and after October 11, 2023. The proposed amendments are necessary to clarify the circumstances in which LUBA will conduct oral argument in person rather than remotely by video conference.
