HB 3175 Oregon House · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to county recording fees.

HB 3175 removes the $10 fee cap that counties could charge for recording property documents related to public land survey corners. This change allows counties to set higher fees for these specific recordings after holding a public hearing, with all collected funds going to a dedicated fund for maintaining land survey markers. The bill directly affects Oregon counties (which set the fees) and property owners/businesses recording deeds or surveys. It modifies existing law by deleting the fee limit while preserving the requirement for public notice and the fund's purpose. The bill passed in May 2025 and takes effect January 1, 2026.
