What changed
Oregon enacted HB4108 authorizing the City of Eugene to annex parcels of land that are not contiguous to the city's boundaries, provided all landowners petition and meet four specified eligibility criteria. The bill passed both chambers with strong majorities and was signed into law by Governor Kotek on April 7, 2026. Landowners in unincorporated areas adjacent to Eugene who seek municipal services or zoning changes may benefit from this new annexation pathway.
