Los Trancos County Water District (LTCWD) was formed in 1954 pursuant to State Water Code Section 300002 in order to improve water service to a portion of Los Trancos Woods, an unincorporated area now in the sphere of influence of the Town of Portola Valley.
The county document says the district plans to sell their water system to the California Water Service Company.
