(1) Has a construction contractor license issued by the Construction Contractors Board and performing the work of the contract requires a construction contractor license under ORS chapter 701; or
(2) Has a landscape contracting business license issued by the State Landscape Contractors Board and performing the work of the contract requires a landscape contracting business license under ORS 671.510 to 671.760. [1989 c.870 §13; 1999 c.402 §7; 2007 c.836 §48; 2021 c.21 §1]
