The Eugene City Council has requested comments on the 400-page updapted land use code. Unfortunately, according to the Register-Guard, "even the people who've been working on the codes for the past five years - including those in opposition - are hard pressed to summarize what, exactly, it means to the individual Eugene resident... The cumulative effect of all the rules and restrictions could be a drag on the city's economy, opponents of the new code said."
