The Alpharetta City Council recently postponed a decision on a $75,400 contract with KCI Technologies for design services associated with the Alpha Loop along Northwinds Parkway from Summit Place to Haynes Bridge Road.

The council stated that while they anticipate approval of the project, they want to be cautious until negotiations with Fulton County over the county’s share of Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) revenues is settled.

Construction has already been completed on the Alpha Loop from Haynes Bridge Road to Westside Parkway (behind Thompson Street), as well as spurs along Thompson Street. Other sections completed are through Chelsea Walk, Atley Developments and Northwinds Summit Developments.

The city anticipates KCI Technologies will honor the current contract pricing in January when the council revisits the proposal.
