Los Altos Hills is a town of 8,000 in the Santa Cruz Mountain foothills — Silicon Valley's most deliberately rural enclave, with no shops, no streetlights, and one-acre minimum lots by design. Incorporated 1956, governed by a five-member Council, to preserve seclusion over growth.

Los Altos Hills City Council Meeting Scheduled for June 18
Los Altos Hills residents should note the upcoming City Council regular meeting on June 18, 2026, at 5:30 PM. This session offers a key opportunity for local governance to address ongoing community priorities and provide updates on city matters. While specific agenda items have not been detailed, the meeting remains the most immediate civic event for residents to engage with town leadership.
Beyond the council meeting, Los Altos Hills continues to navigate significant issues including the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority’s plans that involve over 2,500 new homes near transit stations, with a focus on affordable housing. The town is also involved in a notable fair housing lawsuit filed by the California Housing Defense Fund, challenging the town’s 2026 Housing Element amendments. Additionally, the community fiber project is progressing, reflecting the town’s investment in its own digital infrastructure. These issues highlight ongoing development and legal challenges shaping the town’s future.
