(1) The Department of Consumer and Business Services may impose a civil penalty as provided in ORS 455.895 for each violation, against a licensed manufactured structure dealer or against a person required by a rule adopted pursuant to ORS 446.666 to be licensed, if the dealer or person violates a provision of ORS 446.661 to 446.756 or a rule adopted by the department relating to the sale of manufactured structures. If the dealer authorizes a person licensed pursuant to ORS 446.666 to commit a violation, the dealer and person are both subject to civil penalty.

(a) Violates a provision of ORS 446.661 to 446.756 or a rule adopted by the department relating to the sale of manufactured structures if the person does not possess a license required by ORS 446.671 or by rule pursuant to ORS 446.666; or
