Oregon Rent control / state preemption
Can cities in Oregon pass rent control?
Cities and counties may not enact any ordinance controlling the rent charged for a dwelling unit, except for listed exclusions such as properties under contracts that provide reduced rents for low-income tenants. A statewide maximum annual increase applies under ORS 90.323 and 90.324.
