SB 665 Oregon Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to monetary penalties.

SB 665 requires all public bodies (like local governments or state agencies) that collect fines or civil penalties under Oregon law to send the full amount of those funds to the State Treasurer for deposit into the General Fund. This means money collected from things like traffic tickets or code violations can no longer be kept by the agency that issued the penalty. Instead, all such funds will flow directly into the state’s general budget for use on any government purpose, such as schools or infrastructure. The bill applies to any public body defined under Oregon law and changes how these penalty revenues are managed.
