Monday night Council took a huge step forward by adopting Eugene's own urban growth Boundary (UGB). This newsletter includes information about their deliberations, a reminder about the next steps in adopting our UGB, and information about upcoming community events where you can chat with your City of Eugene planners. As always, you can find the latest information about Envision Eugene on our website.

The Eugene City Council met on July 17th to discuss the UGB proposal. After seven years of community involvement and technical analysis, Council supported the proposed UGB for jobs, parks, schools and homes, a significant step toward implementing our community vision. Their action paves the way for staff to begin work on other projects that are important to the community, including urban reserve planning, updating our needed housing standards, and establishing the growth monitoring program.
