Much of Alpharetta went up in one long building boom. More than half of the city's homes were built in the 1980s and 1990s, by Census estimates. The median home dates to 1996. Original concrete at a house that age is about 30 years old now. The driveway may show cracked panels or a sunken corner by the garage, and the patio may feel too small.

Alpharetta was the seat of Milton County until 1932, when Milton merged into Fulton County. The city stayed a small farm town into the early 1980s, by its own history page. It had about 3,000 people in 1980. The 2020 Census counted 65,818.
Census estimates date about a third of today's homes to the 1990s alone. Just over half are single-family detached houses, and about one in nine is a townhome. The city's neighborhood page mentions swim and tennis communities and urban lofts. If your street has a homeowners association, check its rules on driveways and patios before work starts.
When we replace a worn driveway, the old concrete comes out first and we haul it away. We can also widen a driveway or extend a small patio and keep the sound concrete in place. A stamped or colored finish works on new patios and walks too.
For a home driveway, usually not. Alpharetta's development code lists driveways for one- and two-family homes and townhouses among work that needs no building permit. The same line adds a catch. No new curb cut into a public right-of-way may be made without written approval from the City Engineering Department.
Work in the city right-of-way is its own step. Alpharetta Public Works requires an approved Right-of-Way Encroachment Permit before any digging there. That strip can include the apron, where a driveway meets the street. Before any digging at all, Georgia 811 asks for a locate ticket at least 3 business days ahead.
Exempt work must still meet the city's other codes and rules. A garage or an addition needs a building permit from the Community Development Department. It accepts plans only through its online Permitting Portal. The city says to allow ten business days for plan review comments.
About a tenth of Alpharetta's land sits in FEMA's 100-year flood zones, by an estimate from FEMA map data. The streams FEMA studied there include Big Creek, Foe Killer Creek, Long Indian Creek and Caney Creek. The city warns that its creeks can rise quickly out of their banks. FEMA's Flood Map Service Center shows the official map for any address.
Creeks also carry buffer rules. Along a protected stream, the city's code keeps an undisturbed natural buffer at least 50 feet wide. Past it lies a setback of at least 25 more feet, where impervious cover such as concrete is prohibited. If a creek runs behind your lot, ask the city before you plan a patio near it.
Large new paved areas bring in the stormwater rules too. The city's stormwater standards apply when a project adds 1,000 square feet or more of new impervious surface. A large patio plus a wider driveway can reach that mark. The Community Development Department handles permits for private development, so start there.
Alpharetta sets its own design criteria for homes and accessory structures. Its residential permitting guide puts the frost line at 5 inches, with a 12-inch minimum footing depth. So a footing for a deck or a garage goes at least 12 inches down. The same table rates the weathering risk for concrete as moderate.
NRCS maps close to half of Alpharetta as urban land, ground reshaped by building and paving. Where a natural soil is named, Cecil leads. NRCS rates it well drained, with a red clay subsoil. Rain still needs a path, so a new slab should shed water away from the house.
The city's table also rates termite damage very heavy and decay damage severe. Its zoning code says wood fences must use naturally durable or pressure-treated wood. The city requires a permit to build or replace a deck, with plan review and inspections. We build new and replacement decks in wood or composite.
