The Eugene City Council adopted the Residential Energy Performance Disclosure Requirement ordinance, commonly called a Home Energy Score requirement, on October 28, 2026. This policy requires disclosure of home energy performance and places Eugene among four other Oregon cities with similar ordinances, including Portland, Hillsboro, Milwaukie, and Bend. The ordinance is intended to help tackle building emissions and reduce energy costs.
