Oregon Statutes - Chapter 197 - Comprehensive Land Use Planning Coordination - Section 197.620 - Who may appeal.

(1) Notwithstanding the requirements of ORS 197.830 (2), persons who participated either orally or in writing in the local government proceedings leading to the adoption of an amendment to an acknowledged comprehensive plan or land use regulation or a new land use regulation may appeal the decision to the Land Use Board of Appeals under ORS 197.830 to 197.845. A decision to not adopt a legislative amendment or a new land use regulation is not appealable except where the amendment is necessary to address the requirements of a new or amended goal, rule or statute.

(2) Notwithstanding the requirements of ORS 197.830 (2), the Director of the Department of Land Conservation and Development or any other person may file an appeal of the local government’s decision under ORS 197.830 to 197.845, if an amendment to an acknowledged comprehensive plan or land use regulation or a new land use regulation differs from the proposal submitted under ORS 197.610 to such a degree that the notice under ORS 197.610 did not reasonably describe the nature of the local government final action.
