City of Eugene Ward Boundary Scenario Survey

Every 10 years, boundaries for federal, state, and local elected offices, including City of Eugene wards, are reviewed and adjusted to reflect new population data from the US Census. Updating ward boundaries helps ensure equal representation by local elected officials by making sure each city councilor and  EWEB  Commissioner represents  about  the  same  number of constituents.

At their September 20, 2021, work session, the Eugene City Council reviewed two possible scenarios that would even out the city’s population across the eight Council wards (about 22,118 residents per ward). The Council would like to collect community feedback on these scenarios and the possible ward boundary changes.

This survey will be open through October 25, 2021. A public forum will be held on October 25 for people to provide their input directly to City Council. Information collected in this survey and from public comment will be summarized and provided to the City Council at an upcoming work session.

More information on the Census and Ward Boundary project is available on the city’s website (eugene-or.gov/wardboundary).
