Or. Admin. Code § 808-002-0280 - Date Work Completed
(1) Except as provided in subsection (4) of this rule, the
phrase "Date Work Completed" means:
(a) The date when all the provisions of the contract were
substantially fulfilled, excluding warranty work; or
(b) The date the landscape contracting business ceased work, if
the landscape contracting business fails to substantially fulfill the
provisions of the contract.
(2) The phrase "date work completed" includes the passing of
any and all final inspections required by the local building department as to
work for which the landscape contracting business:
(a) is required by OAR 808-003-0126(1) to obtain any
permit;
(b) has entered into a verbal or written contract to pull
required permits; or,
(c) is required by local ordinance to pull all required
permits.
(3) If a permit was required to be pulled by the landscape
contracting business, or the landscape contracting business failed to confirm
in writing that necessary permits were obtained by the property owner or
general contractor, and any prior inspections were unsuccessful - meaning
another final inspection is still required - then the work will not be
considered substantially complete.
(4) If no landscape work was performed under the contract, then
the phrase "date work completed" refers to whichever of the following events
occurred last:
(a) the date that payment under the terms of the contract was
made;
(b) the date that a written or verbal proposal, which was later
accepted as a contract, was made; or
(c) the contract date.
(5) Upon the effective date of the 2023 rule amendments, the
provisions of this rule will apply to:
(a) all claims that remain open at the Board, and
(b) all claims received after the effective date of the 2023
rule amendments.
(6) The 2023 amendments to this rule will not apply to claims
cases closed prior to the effective date of this rule.
