ORS Chapter 714
714.280 Legislative intent of ATM and night deposit facility law.

(1) It is the intent of the Legislative Assembly in enacting ORS 714.280 to 714.315 to enhance the safety of consumers using ATMs and night deposit facilities in Oregon without discouraging the siting of ATMs and night deposit facilities in locations convenient to consumers homes and workplaces. Since decisions concerning safety at ATMs and night deposit facilities are inherently subjective, the Legislative Assembly intends to establish as the standard of care applicable to operators of ATMs and night deposit facilities in connection with user safety, the compliance with the objective standards and information requirements of ORS 714.280 to 714.315. The Legislative Assembly further recognizes the need for uniformity as to the establishment of safety standards for ATMs and night deposit facilities and intends with ORS 714.280 to 714.315 to supersede and preempt any rule, regulation, code or ordinance of any city, county, municipality or local agency regarding customer safety at ATMs and night deposit facilities in this state.

(2) It is not the intent of the Legislative Assembly in enacting ORS 714.280 to 714.315 to impose a duty to relocate or modify ATMs or night deposit facilities upon the occurrence of any particular events or circumstances, but rather to establish a means for the evaluation of all ATMs and night deposit facilities as provided in ORS 714.210 to 714.992.
