(KPTV) - Eugene has become the first city in Oregon to outlaw gas appliance hookups for new residential construction.This comes in the midst of ongoing efforts to cut emissions in order to battle climate change, as well as a growing body of study into the health impacts of natural gas, a fossil fuel based on methane.Last fall the Multnomah County Health Department recommended phasing out gas appliances after publishing a review of the evidence on public health and gas stoves.On Monday, February 6, the Eugene City Council approved the prohibition during a special meeting.

Again, is city council/health dept mislabeling parts of the house that will be inspected?
