November 5, 2026 EETAC Meeting

The November 5, 2026 EETAC meeting of the City of Eugene Public Meetings focused on a consultant’s presentation of the Housing Capacity Analysis, a technical land-use planning study. The analysis compared housing capacity under current plans with the projected 20-year need of about 25,944 units. The inventory identified capacity for 13,285 units, and the presentation described deficits across plan designations; participants also referred to an estimated gap of roughly 7,700 units. Members discussed assumptions about housing types, redevelopment, partially vacant land, infrastructure readiness, and possible future land-use efficiency measures, including zoning changes and incentives. No procurement, contract award, vendor selection, or spending action was identified.

The committee unanimously approved a bylaws amendment changing the membership range from 10–15 to 7–12 members. Staff previewed upcoming planning commission and council proceedings on comprehensive plan and code amendments, and discussed future meetings to continue reviewing housing capacity and potential efficiency measures. These planning discussions may inform future zoning and urban growth boundary decisions, but no related policy adoption or procurement decision occurred at this meeting.
