922-980 S. Claremont Street Project

The project at 922-980 S. Claremont Street in San Mateo, California, involves the redevelopment of a 1.37-acre site currently occupied by three existing single-story buildings totaling approximately 25,186 square feet, which are either vacant or used for automobile repair services. The proposal includes retaining and rehabilitating these structures for use as a self-storage facility, while also constructing a new two-story storage building with a basement level of approximately 51,873 square feet. Combined, the four storage buildings will provide nearly 76,767 square feet of space, accommodating 118 wine storage units, 591 standard storage units, 717 storage lockers, and about 2,028 square feet of office space. Additional improvements include a surface parking lot with 20 spaces, new on and offsite utility connections, landscaping, and frontage enhancements to improve the site’s appearance and functionality. The project is being pursued under the jurisdiction of the City of San Mateo, with primary point of contact being Steve Golden, Principal Planner, and additional coordination handled by Kaela Johnson, Project Manager, and Steven Christie, Senior Vice President. The proposal is listed as a forecast on the state’s environmental review platform, indicating it is in an early planning phase and subject to further environmental and regulatory review. The site is located in the 94402 zip code area, and while no specific NAICS code or set-aside designation is provided, the nature of the development suggests a focus on commercial reuse and adaptive rehabilitation of existing infrastructure to meet growing local demand for storage solutions.
