(2) If a petition is filed with the board that is resolved by stipulation under ORS 308.242 prior to the date the board convenes, the stipulation shall be entered into the record of the board. The requirements for recording by formal order, mailing and delivery under subsection (1) of this section do not apply to a stipulation entered into the record under this subsection. For all other purposes, a petition that is resolved by stipulation under ORS 308.242 prior to the date the board convenes shall be treated as if the petition had been withdrawn.

(5) An amended order correcting a clerical error or an error of jurisdiction must be made on or before June 30 of the year in which the original order was issued by the board.

(6) The provisions of subsection (1) of this section shall apply to amended orders, unless the context requires otherwise. Amended orders shall be mailed to the petitioner and delivered to the assessor and the officer in charge of the roll not later than five days after the adjournment of a board’s meetings or five days after the date the order is amended, whichever is later.

(8) As used in this section:

(a) "Clerical error" means an error in an order that either arises from an error in the minutes of a board or is a failure to correctly reflect the minutes of a board and that, had it been discovered prior to the order being issued, would have been corrected as a matter of course. In order to be a clerical error, the information necessary to make the correction must be contained in the minutes of the board. Such errors include, but are not limited to, arithmetic and copying errors and omission or misstatement of identification of property.

(b) "Error of jurisdiction" means an error in an order resulting from a board’s failure to correctly apply the board’s authority as granted under ORS 309.026.
