If a parent, guardian or other person responsible for the youth cannot be found or will not take responsibility for the youth, no appropriate shelter care space is available and the youth cannot be released safely on recognizance or conditionally, a youth who is accused of an act which would be a crime if committed by an adult may be detained for a period of time not exceeding 36 hours from the time the youth first is taken into custody to allow the juvenile department counselor or other person designated by the juvenile court to develop a release plan to insure the youth’s safety and appearance in court. Such detention shall conform to the limitations of ORS 419C.130. [1993 c.33 §170; 1995 c.422 §73e]
