• Be filed with the public body within 30 days of the alleged violation;
• Set forth the specific facts and circumstances that are alleged to violate public meetings law;
• State the identity of the person filing the grievance; and
• Contain any other information required by Oregon Government Ethics Commission rules.

What happens after I file a grievance?

The Commission has 21 days after receiving the grievance to provide a written response to the person who filed the grievance and send a copy of the grievance and the Commission response to the Oregon Government Ethics Commission.
