Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 223 § 223.815 — Acquisition of property for parking facilities

Acquisition of property for parking facilities. For the purposes of ORS 223.810, a city may acquire property at or below the surface of the earth, by purchase, condemnation, exchange or other lawful manner. However, a city may not so acquire privately owned property used for public parking unless the facility to be constructed by the city would substantially increase the number of vehicle off-street parking spaces available for public use. The city may use the area below the street surface or the area beneath the surface of a park or other public property. [Amended by 1959 c.653 §8; 1967 c.478 §1]
