Relating to the use of land within an urban growth boundary.

SB 984 allows battery-powered electric fences on commercial and industrial properties within Oregon's urban growth boundaries that are not used as residences. The bill sets specific safety requirements, including a maximum 12-volt battery, compliance with IEC safety standards, a minimum 5-foot non-electric perimeter fence, and visible warning signs every 30 feet. It prohibits local governments from banning these fences or imposing additional permit requirements beyond standard alarm system permits for qualifying properties. This directly affects commercial and industrial property owners by standardizing fence regulations and preventing local restrictions on this specific fence type.
