182.119 Mailing of agency notices to post office boxes.
(1)Notwithstanding any other provision of law, whenever an agency of state government, as defined in ORS 174.111, is required by statute to mail to an individual a notice containing information specifically pertinent to the individual, and the agency has on file a post office box address for the individual, the agency shall mail the notice to the post office box address if that address is the individual’s last known address on file with the agency or the address to which the individual has requested in writing that notices be sent.
(2)A notice mailed to a post office box address under this section that meets any other requirements for service by mail is complete and adequate service by mail.
(3)An agency’s failure to comply with the requirements of this section does not invalidate a notice mailed to an address other than a post office box address if the notice was received by the individual.
(4)If an agency of state government has multiple divisions that keep addresses on file, subsection
(1)of this section applies separately to each division of the agency that keeps addresses on file. [2021 c.143 §1]
