What We're Working on Now

In January 2009, the Town of Portola Valley joined the San Mateo County Green Business Program. We are in the process of certifying the Town Hall as a Green Business. Once we understand the process, we will reach out to the business community and encourage local businesses to join the Green Business Program. Joining the Green Business Program will assist you with steps to make your operations more sustainable and enable you to stand above the crowd as you market your business as a Green Business!
