(A)

A building, health or housing code materially affecting health or safety;

(B)

(c)

The tenant has organized or become a member of a tenants’ union or similar organization;

(d)

The tenant has testified against the landlord in any judicial, administrative or legislative proceeding;

(e)

The tenant successfully defended an action for possession brought by the landlord within the previous six months except if the tenant was successful in defending the action only because:

(A)

The termination notice by the landlord was not served or delivered in the manner required by ORS 90.155 (Service or delivery of written notice)or

(B)

The period provided by the termination notice was less than that required by the statute upon which the notice relied to terminate the tenancy; or

(f)

The tenant has performed or expressed intent to perform any other act for the purpose of asserting, protecting or invoking the protection of any right secured to tenants under any federal, state or local law.

(2)

As used in subsection (1) of this section, “decreasing services” includes:

(a)

Unreasonably restricting the availability of or placing unreasonable burdens on the use of common areas or facilities by tenant associations or tenants meeting to establish a tenant organization; and

(b)

Intentionally and unreasonably interfering with and substantially impairing the enjoyment or use of the premises by the tenant.

(3)

If the landlord acts in violation of subsection (1) of this section the tenant is entitled to the remedies provided in ORS 90.375 (Effect of unlawful ouster or exclusion) and has a defense in any retaliatory action against the tenant for possession.

(4)

Notwithstanding subsections (1) and (3) of this section, a landlord may bring an action for possession if:

(a)

The complaint by the tenant was made to the landlord or an agent of the landlord in an unreasonable manner or at an unreasonable time or was repeated in a manner having the effect of unreasonably harassing the landlord. A determination whether the manner, time or effect of a complaint was unreasonable shall include consideration of all related circumstances preceding or contemporaneous to the complaint;

(b)

The violation of the applicable building or housing code was caused primarily by lack of reasonable care by the tenant or other person in the household of the tenant or upon the premises with the consent of the tenant;

(c)

The tenant was in default in rent at the time of the service of the notice upon which the action is based; or

(d)

Compliance with the applicable building or housing code requires alteration, remodeling or demolition which would effectively deprive the tenant of use of the dwelling unit.

(5)

For purposes of this section, a complaint made by another on behalf of a tenant is considered a complaint by the tenant.

(6)

For the purposes of subsection (4)(c) of this section, a tenant who has paid rent into court pursuant to ORS 90.370 (Tenant counterclaims in action by landlord for possession or rent) shall not be considered to be in default in rent.

(7)

The maintenance of an action under subsection (4) of this section does not release the landlord from liability under ORS 90.360 (Effect of landlord noncompliance with rental agreement or obligation to maintain premises) (2).

Failure of landlord to supply essential services

  • remedies

(1)

If contrary to the rental agreement or ORS 90.320 (Landlord to maintain premises in habitable condition) or 90.730 (Landlord duty to maintain rented space, vacant spaces and common areas in habitable condition) the landlord intentionally or negligently fails to supply any essential service, the tenant may give written notice to the landlord specifying the breach and that the tenant may seek substitute services, diminution in rent damages or substitute housing. After allowing the landlord a reasonable time and reasonable access under the circumstances to supply the essential service, the tenant may:

(a)

Procure reasonable amounts of the essential service during the period of the landlord’s noncompliance and deduct their actual and reasonable cost from the rent;

(b)

Recover damages based upon the diminution in the fair rental value of the dwelling unit; or

(c)

If the failure to supply an essential service makes the dwelling unit unsafe or unfit to occupy, procure substitute housing during the period of the landlord’s noncompliance, in which case the tenant is excused from paying rent for the period of the landlord’s noncompliance. In addition, the tenant may recover as damages from the landlord the actual and reasonable cost or fair and reasonable value of comparable substitute housing in excess of the rent for the dwelling unit. For purposes of this paragraph, substitute housing is comparable if it is of a quality that is similar to or less than the quality of the dwelling unit with regard to basic elements including cooking and refrigeration services and, if warranted, upon consideration of factors such as location in the same area as the dwelling unit, the availability of substitute housing in the area and the expense relative to the range of choices for substitute housing in the area. A tenant may choose substitute housing of relatively greater quality, but the tenant’s damages shall be limited to the cost or value of comparable substitute housing.

(2)

If contrary to the rental agreement or ORS 90.320 (Landlord to maintain premises in habitable condition) or 90.730 (Landlord duty to maintain rented space, vacant spaces and common areas in habitable condition) the landlord fails to supply any essential service, the lack of which poses an imminent and serious threat to the tenant’s health, safety or property, the tenant may give written notice to the landlord specifying the breach and that the rental agreement shall terminate in not less than 48 hours unless the breach is remedied within that period. If the landlord adequately remedies the breach before the end of the notice period, the rental agreement shall not terminate by reason of the breach. As used in this subsection, “imminent and serious threat to the tenant’s health, safety or property” shall not include the presence of radon, asbestos or lead-based paint or the future risk of flooding or seismic hazard, as defined by ORS 455.447 (Regulation of certain structures vulnerable to earthquakes and tsunamis).

(3)

For purposes of subsection (1) of this section, a landlord shall not be considered to be intentionally or negligently failing to supply an essential service if:

(a)

The landlord substantially supplies the essential service; or

(b)

The landlord is making a reasonable and good faith effort to supply the essential service and the failure is due to conditions beyond the landlord’s control.

(4)

This section does not require a landlord to supply a cooking appliance or a refrigerator if the landlord did not supply or agree to supply a cooking appliance or refrigerator to the tenant.

(5)

If the tenant proceeds under this section, the tenant may not proceed under ORS 90.360 (Effect of landlord noncompliance with rental agreement or obligation to maintain premises) (1) as to that breach.

(6)

Rights of the tenant under this section do not arise if the condition was caused by the deliberate or negligent act or omission of the tenant or a person on the premises with the tenant’s consent.

(7)

Service or delivery of actual or written notice shall be as provided by ORS 90.150 (Service or delivery of actual notice) and 90.155 (Service or delivery of written notice), including the addition of three days to the notice period if written notice is delivered by first class mail.

(8)

Any provisions of this section that reasonably apply only to a structure that is used as a home, residence or sleeping place does not apply to a manufactured dwelling, recreational vehicle or floating home if the tenant owns the manufactured dwelling, recreational vehicle or floating home and rents the space. [Formerly 91.805; 1995 c.559 §21; 1997 c.577 §20; 1999 c.603 §22; 1999 c.676 §14; 2007 c.508 §8]

The tenant shall not be entitled to recover damages for a landlord noncompliance with ORS 90.320 (Landlord to maintain premises in habitable condition) or 90.730 (Landlord duty to maintain rented space, vacant spaces and common areas in habitable condition) if the landlord neither knew nor reasonably should have known of the condition that constituted the noncompliance and:

(a)

The tenant knew or reasonably should have known of the condition and failed to give actual notice to the landlord in a reasonable time prior to the occurrence of the personal injury, damage to personal property, diminution in rental value or other tenant loss resulting from the noncompliance; or

(b)

The condition was caused after the tenancy began by the deliberate or negligent act or omission of someone other than the landlord or a person acting on behalf of the landlord.

(3)

The remedy provided in subsection (2) of this section is in addition to any right of the tenant arising under subsection (1) of this section.

(4)

The tenant may not terminate or recover damages under this section for a condition caused by the deliberate or negligent act or omission of the tenant or other person on the premises with the tenant’s permission or consent.

(5)
