(g)

A show license application may be amended to add or delete show participants, or to correct information if submitted to DMV Business Regulation Section no later than 30 days before the date of a prospective show. In the event a participant printed on a show license is unable to attend or withdraws from the show after the 30th day, the organizer must mark a line on the approved show license using black ink through the name of that participant.

(5)

Issuance and Display of License. DMV will issue a show license to the organizer, authorizing the listed dealers to participate in the RV show if the application is complete, the fee established under ORS 822.700 (Certification fees) is paid and all other requirements are met. The show license must be conspicuously posted at the main entrance to the RV show for each day of the show and must be available for inspection by DMV.

(6)

Service Facility. Vehicle dealers that sell new RVs must maintain, within Oregon, a recreational vehicle service facility that has the primary purpose of servicing and repairing recreational vehicles. The location of the recreational vehicle service facility must be prominently displayed at the RV dealer’s sales site. In order to meet the requirement that the vehicle dealer “maintain” a recreational vehicle service facility, the dealer must own or lease the service facility and directly conduct the servicing and repair operation, without subcontracting.
