Relating to allowable uses of place of worship.

Summary

The bill amends Oregon law so counties must permit places of worship to hold services, classes, weddings, funerals, meals and child‑care programs, but not private K‑12 or higher‑education schools. Counties can still apply reasonable site or design reviews and can block a use if public infrastructure is inadequate or if there is a health or safety risk. It also clarifies that counties may allow private or parochial schools if state and local zoning rules permit them.
