What past disasters mean for kitchens in Tiburon

Since 1964, Marin County has been named in 24 FEMA declarations; severe storms (10 declarations) and flooding (9 declarations) lead the list. A project that reaches Belvedere should read that page too; it lists the declarations for its county.

The most recent is Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4699), declared April 3, 2023, with the incident beginning February 21, 2023. Severe storms interrupt power, roads and deliveries together, which is hard on any operation that serves meals on a schedule. By incident type, the count is severe storms 10, flooding 9, hurricane 1, freezing conditions 1 and earthquake 1. By decade: 1960s 2, 1970s 3, 1980s 4, 1990s 5, 2000s 3, 2010s 4 and 2020s 3. The records also list Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4683, January 14, 2023), Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, and Mudslides (EM-3591, January 9, 2023), Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4434, May 17, 2019), Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4431, May 1, 2019) and Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, and Mudslides (DR-4308, April 1, 2017).

Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 100 county-based event records for Marin County; flood events account for 97 of them, high-wind and thunderstorm events for 3. After a flood the pad matters as much as the unit: a rental kitchen needs firm, well-drained ground and a clear route in.

Marin County is the origin of 1 mapped wildfire of 1,000 acres or more since 2016, adding up to roughly 4,907 acres, according to NIFC. The biggest, Woodward, burned 4,907 acres in 2020. Smoke, evacuations and power shutoffs can close kitchens and spoil stock even when the flames never reach the building.

Declarations are federal designations for an area, not a record of damage at a particular site.

Construction projects and crew meals near Tiburon

Since October 2021, 18 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Marin County as the place of work. The Department of Defense committed $4.9 million to “Demolition and New Construction for the Sausalito Debris Dock” in Marin County, awarded October 2023 (award record). Another public record is “Salmon Habitat Enhancement, Phase 2, Muir Woods National Monument, Marin County, California,” a $2 million Department of the Interior contract from May 2023 in Marin County (award record). In September 2021, the Department of the Interior awarded a $1.4 million contract for “Rehabilitate Simmonds Road in San Francisco, CA - Golden Gate National Recreation Area” in Marin County, with work running to June 2022 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $1.1 million Department of the Interior contract, “Muir Woods Valley Water Rehabilitation,” starting September 2020 in Marin County (award record). Work like this puts crews on a site for months, often far from a restaurant, and the meals become a logistics question before the first shift starts. A project in Sausalito, about 7,075 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Major renovation in Tiburon

Another public record is “Replacement of Capehart Roofing Phase 2-3,” a $1.4 million Department of the Interior contract from September 2025 in Marin County (award record). In February 2022, the Department of Homeland Security awarded a $1 million contract for “Camspac Air Distribution Retrofit, PT. Reyes at Inverness and Bolinas PSN: 13959765” in Marin County, with work running to November 2023 (award record). Whoever remodels in Corte Madera starts from the same two questions: when does the kitchen close, and what feeds people until it reopens?

Getting emergency equipment into Tiburon

In California, the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) works with counties on emergency operations. Official staging areas and the roads that connect them to local emergency-management hubs are published by those agencies and should be checked there. Staging and access details differ again in Mill Valley, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.

The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Kaiser Foundation Hospital, in San Rafael, about 7 miles from Tiburon in a straight line.
