SB 1129 Oregon Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to urban reserves; and declaring an emergency.

SB 1129 requires Oregon's Land Conservation and Development Commission to update its rules for urban reserves by January 2026. It directs local governments to give lower priority to adding certain lands - like those in special exception zones or planned subdivisions - to urban reserves, and to prioritize lands where providing services (e.g., water, roads) is impractical due to terrain. This change aims to streamline how cities expand urban boundaries for development. The bill was signed into law in May 2025 and takes effect immediately.
