Special Rules Advisory Committee

Special Rules Advisory Committee (SRAC) meeting information

In late summer 2017, the Board established an ad-hoc committee to advise on the possible development of new rule definitions for Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 804-003-0000 to address landscape design exemptions provided under ORS 671.321. The SRAC investigated whether new rule definitions would serve to provide improved clarity and direction about exempt landscape design services to those working within the overlapping and complementary fields of landscape architecture, landscape construction, and landscape design. The SRAC meet five times between November 2017 and June 2018.  Based on recommendations from the SRAC, the Board adopted new defintiions for "construction detail" and "construction specification" in May 2019.
