Source: City of Eugene Planning & Development, Building Activity Reports: Issued Building Permits (export), read 19 Oct 2026. We count permits issued October 2024 through September 2026; denied and withdrawn permits are left out. The city's issued-permit report carries no permit status or completion date, so no finished share is shown.
Building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, manufactured-home, fire-sprinkler and sign permits the City of Eugene issued inside the city. Public-works (right-of-way), erosion-control and site-development permits are left out. Springfield and unincorporated Lane County run their own permit offices and are not in this file.
Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits. Nobody paid to be on this page and nobody can. Sources and definitions →
