I'm having the same issue after updating, it's extremely punishing for builders.
I've tried with a fresh saves and with old saves, with and without mods, on several lots in different worlds/neighbourhoods, with debug and regular items, with items from basegame and different DLCs. Nothing seems to make any difference: any item placed off lot even by a quarter of a tile gets deleted when the building is downloaded from the Library/Gallery.
The bug doesn't seems to be triggered by loading screens in my save(s), as the buildings placed on a lot before the update stay the same, "poking" items and all. But the buildings featured on my Gallery are a whole different matter, and they are going to cause an issue with whoever downloads them.
I've almost 80 downloadable buildings there, and a good chunk of them features items placed on the lot's edge. Never mind the odd shrub or patch of grass placed here and there, some of these buildings have some serious landscaping going on, and this bug are going to change them quite dramatically. The idea that other simmers will end up with a heavily botched version of my buildings upsets me greatly, especially because - if they prefer to download than to build - chances are that they're not going to be aware of this bug right away, if ever.
As it now, the whole building/uploading/downloading system is seriously crippled by this bug, and it would be very much appreciated if the devs could investigate the issue. Fingers crossed.
This wasn't solved by today's patch (1.110.294.1020).
Still waiting for an answer from EA on this topic as it's a major issue for builders and people that use builds from the gallery, and for the 392 people that said they had this problem (it's rare to see such a high number here...).
Like YuleNorwood, it really saddens me knowing that people who use my builds won't have a complete version of them. I don't want to share anything new until it's solved to avoid disappointments.

I haven't even opened my game since I discovered this is happening. As many other posters have said, this is a huge problem for builders & anybody downloading builds from the gallery. It would be nice to get some type of reply from the devs on this problem.

I got the same issue as well. I download alot of builds on the gallery and majority build on the edges of the lot. I thought the issue was mod related. It makes sense its related to a recent patch cause i only noticed this issue appeared when the game had that huge patch update before the release of the new EP.
I can only imagine how disruptive this will be for builders. It will definitely have a flow and effect where build uploads on the gallery will be halted until this critical issue is fixed.
Edit: Attached an example.
