Welcome to Keep Our Neighborhoods Livable! If you're confused about the city of Eugene's planning process, you've come to the right place. These days it takes a master's degree in city planning and an in-depth course in Oregon land-use law to understand its many layers.

This complicated process - created by well-intended people - has resulted in unintended consequences. It is so complicated, in fact, that people would rather throw their hands in the air than get involved. Unfortunately, that means the "public" is often missing from the "public" process. When this occurs, bad things can happen to good neighborhoods. Case in point: Goodpasture Partners' proposed development along the East Bank Bike Path next to wildlife-rich Delta Ponds.

It takes people like you - those who care about neighborhoods, parks, open spaces and traffic congestion - to make change happen.
