Property Management
Under Oregon's ORLTA, a landlord who discovers a tenant has installed a satellite dish without permission may:
AImmediately remove the satellite dish
BServe a written notice to cure the lease violation within a specified time period✓ Correct
CEvict the tenant immediately without notice
DDo nothing — satellite dishes are protected by federal law in all cases
Explanation
If installation of a satellite dish violates the lease terms, the landlord may serve a written notice to cure the violation within a reasonable time (typically 30 days for non-dangerous violations). Note: Federal FCC rules (Over-the-Air Reception Devices rules) may protect tenant rights to install small satellite dishes in their exclusive-use areas.
