Private reference, not a custodian. Saratoga Residents Directory cannot pull, certify, correct, or remove a government record, and it cannot confirm who lives at an address. For immediate danger call 911. If a record question involves stalking or harassment, contact local law enforcement.
Choose the Right Records Contact
The quickest route depends on the record being sought:
- Street and parcel clues: use the Saratoga street directory workflow.
- Old papers and past households: use the Saratoga directory book collections.
- One-person verification: use the Saratoga resident lookup page.
- City files: search published Laserfiche material first, then use the City's California Public Records Act request route.
- County deeds and certificates: contact the Santa Clara County Clerk-Recorder, which is the custodian for those records.

The City Clerk page lists City Manager's Department at 408-868-1216 and the main City Hall number at 408-868-1200. Use the published online form or visit City Hall for a City record that is not already available. A useful request names the subject, date or date range, record type, title, and description. Under the California Public Records Act, the City generally makes a determination within ten calendar days and may use a written fourteen-day unusual-circumstances extension; that is not a promise of production within ten days.
