Welcome Page - LUBA

LUBA has temporarily amended one of its administrative rules. This amendment provides that LUBA's office will be closed to the public on Mondays effective September 14, 2020. LUBA's office will remain open to the public Tuesday through Thursday. See our Rules and Statutes page for more information.

To help slow and prevent the spread of COVID-19, and protect employees and the public, LUBA will be changing the way it provides services at its office in Salem. Offices will remain open and the public may contact LUBA staff by phone and email during regular business hours. Response to phone and email inquiries may be delayed. LUBA staff will endeavor to respond to messages within two business days. In-person interactions between staff and the public will be by appointment only.

LUBA will move to an appointment-only system for in person filings under OAR 661-010-0025(2)(a) (transmittal of record) and OAR 661-010-0075(2)(a)(B)(i) (filing of documents with the Board), effective Tuesday, March 24, 2020, until further notice. Appointments must be confirmed with LUBA at least four (4) hours before the requested appointment time. Appointments may be made by emailing LUBASupport@oregon.gov or calling (503)373-1265. LUBA will confirm an appointment is available as soon as practicable. Failure to arrive within 15 minutes after an appointment time will result in cancellation of the appointment and will require rescheduling.

Filings by first class mail with the United States Postal Service under OAR 661-010-0075(2)(a)(B)(ii) are not affected by this change.
