Weekly summary for Los Altos
May 4, 2026 to May 10, 2026 • Updated May 7, 2026
This week in Los Altos flooding-related activity, the focus remains on regional water management decisions that could impact the city’s flood resilience. While no new city-specific flooding projects or proposals were reported, ongoing discussions at the Santa Clara Valley Water District Board of Directors meetings continue to shape policies and capital improvements relevant to Los Altos. Key recent developments include: - Adoption of a resolution appointing an interim CEO and updates to the Safe, Clean Water and Natural Flood Protection Program’s change control process. - Public hearings held on environmental and engineering reports for flood-related infrastructure projects such as the Vasona Pump Station. - Continued legal and administrative sessions addressing flood management program oversight and funding. What to watch: Future Los Altos City Council or Planning Commission agendas for local flood mitigation projects or partnerships with Valley Water as regional plans advance.
