The city of Eugene’s $10 cap on rental fees could be enforced after the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned a ruling by Lane County Circuit Court on August 28. Matt Keating tells Eugene Weekly in a text that as the only renter on Eugene City Council, he is thrilled by the Court of Appeals decision to uphold the council’s 2022 decision to cap application fees at $10. “I’ve seen firsthand how the unchecked nickel-and-diming of prospective tenants through screening and application fees adds up,” he writes.
