2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 03 - Landlord-Tenant, Domestic Relations, Probate › Chapter 090 - Residential Landlord and Tenant › Section 90.392 - Termination of tenancy for cause; tenant right to cure violation.

(1) Except as provided in this chapter, after delivery of written notice a landlord may terminate the rental agreement for cause and take possession as provided in ORS 105.100 to 105.168, unless the tenant cures the violation as provided in this section.
(2) Causes for termination under this section are:
(a) Material violation by the tenant of the rental agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, material violation of the rental agreement includes, but is not limited to, the nonpayment of a late charge under ORS 90.260 or a utility or service charge under ORS 90.315.
(b) Material violation by the tenant of ORS 90.325.
(c) Failure by the tenant to pay rent.
(3) The notice must:
(a) Specify the acts and omissions constituting the violation;
(b) Except as provided in subsection (5)(a) of this section, state that the rental agreement will terminate upon a designated date not less than 30 days after delivery of the notice; and
(c) If the tenant can cure the violation as provided in subsection (4) of this section, state that the violation can be cured, describe at least one possible remedy to cure the violation and designate the date by which the tenant must cure the violation.
(4)(a) If the violation described in the notice can be cured by the tenant by a change in conduct, repairs, payment of money or otherwise, the rental agreement does not terminate if the tenant cures the violation by the designated date. The designated date must be:
(A) At least 14 days after delivery of the notice; or
(B) If the violation is conduct that was a separate and distinct act or omission and is not ongoing, no earlier than the date of delivery of the notice as provided in ORS 90.155. For purposes of this paragraph, conduct is ongoing if the conduct is constant or persistent or has been sufficiently repetitive over time that a reasonable person would consider the conduct to be ongoing.
(b) If the tenant does not cure the violation, the rental agreement terminates as provided in the notice.
(5)(a) If the cause of a written notice delivered under subsection (1) of this section is substantially the same act or omission that constituted a prior violation for which notice was given under this section within the previous six months, the designated termination date stated in the notice must be not less than 10 days after delivery of the notice and no earlier than the designated termination date stated in the previously given notice. The tenant does not have a right to cure this subsequent violation.
(b) A landlord may not terminate a rental agreement under this subsection if the only violation is a failure to pay the current month’s rent.
(6) When a tenancy is a week-to-week tenancy, the notice period in:
(a) Subsection (3)(b) of this section changes from 30 days to seven days;
(b) Subsection (4)(a)(A) of this section changes from 14 days to four days; and
(c) Subsection (5)(a) of this section changes from 10 days to four days.
(7) The termination of a tenancy for a manufactured dwelling or floating home space in a facility under ORS 90.505 to 90.850 is governed by ORS 90.630 and not by this section. [2005 c.391 §7]
