CITY COUNCIL UPDATE: The Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax ("TSPLOST") is three quarters of a cent added to the County’s sales tax dedicated for transportation projects. Prior TSPLOST I and TSPLOST II projects have included work on Kimball Bridge Road, Rucker Road, Webb Bridge Road, McGinnis Ferry Road, Cu***ng Street, pedestrian bridges on Windward, mid-block crosswalks, roundabouts, and Alpha Loop pedestrian trail extensions among other projects. We are currently in TSPLOST II, and it expires March 31, 2027. TSPLOST III would then start on April 1, 2027 if approved in a referendum later this year in November. Between now and this summer, cities in Fulton County need to develop a project list, conduct public meetings, and approve a MOU between all the Cities and the County. It is anticipated Alpharetta will receive approximately $71.6M for TSPLOST III. Projects are divided into 3 tiers. Tier I makes up 85% of the dollars, Tier II encompasses 15%, and Tier III projects are an additional 15%.
On June 1, after months of discussion, resident input, and work sessions, Council voted to approve the project list below. The project costs are preliminary estimates.
