Bill > SB198

This bill directs the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to conduct a comprehensive study on courthouses, with a requirement to submit a report to the interim legislative committees focused on judiciary matters by September 15, 2026. The report may include legislative recommendations and must be submitted in compliance with ORS 192.245, which likely pertains to the format and procedural requirements for official legislative reports. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, effectively making this a time-limited directive. By establishing this study, the legislation aims to gather information and potentially identify improvements or legislative actions related to courthouse facilities, operations, or infrastructure in Oregon.
