The Eugene City Council on Monday rescinded an ordinance that would have prohibited natural gas hookups in new low rise residential construction. Eugene had been the first city in Oregon to pass such a measure.

    I can’t seem to get past the paywall. Can you give a summary of the article?

      There’s hardly any detail in the article, but the long and short of it is that the Eugene city council rescinded the ordinance that was going to ban new construction with natural gas, due to various legal concerns. But it also looks likely that they’re going to try again with a better-written ordinance that doesn’t carry the same potential legal pitfalls.
