Past emergency for Portola Valley projects
Recovery after the 2023 flood declaration (FEMA EM-3592)
FEMA's declaration records list "Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides" (EM-3592) as a emergency declaration for San Mateo County. The incident began on March 9, 2023 and ended on July 10, 2023, and the declaration was made on March 10, 2023. This is a county-level record for Portola Valley planning. A comparable cleanup plan can start with overnight staffing, laundry needs and a receiving area for temporary equipment. A past event does not mean there is a need today.

Major construction for Portola Valley projects
Alexandria Center for Life Science Project
CEQAnet received a Notice of Determination from City of San Carlos on May 13, 2025, recording an approval date of May 12, 2025, for "Alexandria Center for Life Science Project" in San Mateo County, near Industrial Rd to E, Commercial St to N, Old County Rd to W, and Pulgas Creek to S. The record describes it as: The project sponsor proposes to remove existing commercial and industrial buildings and to construct a new office/R&D campus including six life science office/R&D buildings with a total of approximately 1,603,879 square feet (floor area) of building space and 24,689 square feet of amenity space, which may include a daycare. The filing identifies San Carlos as the project location. The determination filing does not establish the current work phase; confirm the schedule with the project owner. Use this as a wider San Mateo County example when discussing the actual Portola Valley work site. For a comparable remote build, confirm how many workers need overnight accommodation before adding hygiene, laundry and meal facilities.

Major renovation for Portola Valley projects
Capuchino High School Classroom Transformation Project
CEQAnet received a Notice of Exemption from San Mateo Union School District on May 20, 2026, for "Capuchino High School Classroom Transformation Project" in San Mateo County, near Park Blvd and Millwood Drive. The record describes it as: This project is interior refurbishment for classrooms in Buildings A, B, C, D, and E. This includes replacement of flooring, baseboards, acoustic ceiling panels, lighting, monitors, and paint. Some teaching walls also will be relocated. The modernized classrooms would benefit of students and teachers. The filing identifies Millbrae as the project location. The exemption filing alone does not establish the current work phase; confirm the schedule with the project owner. Use this as a wider San Mateo County example when discussing the actual Portola Valley work site. For a comparable renovation, identify the facilities actually taken out of service before selecting temporary support for the workforce.
