What public records show for food service in San Pablo
Past emergency
San Pablo and DR-4683
The most recent federal disaster on record for Contra Costa County, which includes San Pablo is DR-4683, severe winter storms, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared January 14, 2023. Contra Costa County has had 6 major disaster declarations since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near San Pablo
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Levee Van Sickle Island" (water control facilities, about $3.8 million) in Contra Costa County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches San Pablo, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in San Pablo that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near San Pablo
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Justin Residential Hall" (buildings and equipment, about $241,000) in Contra Costa County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs like this often include the building's kitchen or the power that feeds it. A school or senior center in San Pablo can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.

California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Contra Costa County emergency management leads response.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: an assisted living community's kitchen in San Pablo
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using San Pablo's own public records and our current price list. It describes what a facility like this could do, not a job we have done.
1. Situation
A 4-month project at an assisted living community's kitchen in San Pablo, regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room, would leave the building without a usable kitchen from the first day of demolition.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-5 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Plan on roughly 5 hours from parking to cooking for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 4 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.5. Estimated rental cost
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 per month on our starting price list, or about $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
