Alpharetta Residents Directory

The Alpharetta residents directory connects you to public records held by the city and Fulton County. Alpharetta sits in north Fulton County with a population of about 67,275 people, and most of the core record systems run through Fulton County offices. You can search for court case files, property deeds, voter rolls, and other public data that ties back to Alpharetta residents. The city itself keeps council meeting notes, election files, police reports, and fire records at its main office. This page breaks down each source so you know where to look and what tools are free to use when you search the Alpharetta residents directory.

Alpharetta City Records and Open Requests

The City of Alpharetta keeps its own set of public records at City Hall. The main address is 2 Park Plaza, Alpharetta, GA 30009. The phone is (678) 297-6000. The City Clerk is the official record keeper for city-level files. That includes City Council meeting minutes, resolutions, ordinances, and election records. You can email the clerk at cityclerk@alpharetta.ga.us to ask about a specific Alpharetta record or to start a formal request.

If you need something beyond what the clerk holds, the Alpharetta Open Records Request page is the place to start. Georgia's Open Records Act at O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-70 says public records must be made available within three business days. The city must respond to your request in that time frame. They can charge for copies. Paper costs $0.10 per page. The first 15 minutes of search time are free. After that, the fee is based on the hourly pay of the lowest paid employee who can do the work. This is the same rule that applies across all of Georgia, but you file the request with Alpharetta directly for city-held records.

Police reports, 911 call logs, and fire reports are also part of the Alpharetta residents directory. The Alpharetta Police Department handles these files. Many cities in Georgia use a P2C (police to citizen) portal for this type of data. You can check the Alpharetta city website for the latest link to their police records system. Incident reports and accident reports are often available for a small fee. The turnaround is usually a few days.

Fulton County Records for Alpharetta

Alpharetta falls under Fulton County for most major public record searches. The Fulton County government runs the court system, property records, and voter rolls that cover Alpharetta. The Clerk of Superior Court at 136 Pryor Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303 is the main custodian of court records. That includes civil and criminal case files, divorce filings, and judgment records that may involve Alpharetta residents. The phone for the clerk is (404) 613-5313.

For a quick Alpharetta residents directory search through court files, the Fulton County eServices portal is a strong tool. It lets you search by name, case number, or date range. The system is free for basic lookups. You can find case details, filing dates, party names, and case status without making a trip to the courthouse in Atlanta. This portal pulls from the same data that the clerk office uses in person, so your results should match what you would find at the counter.

Fulton County also runs branch offices closer to Alpharetta. The North Service Center is at 7741 Roswell Road, Suite 253, Atlanta, GA 30350. This is a shorter drive than going all the way downtown if you live in the north Fulton County area. You can handle court record searches, filings, and copy requests at that location. It saves time for Alpharetta residents who need to pick up documents in person.

Note: Some older Fulton County cases filed before the digital switch may not appear online, so call the clerk if your search comes up empty.

Alpharetta Property Records Search

Property records are a big part of the Alpharetta residents directory. The GSCCCA Real Estate Records Search lets you look up property deals across Georgia, and you can filter by Fulton County to find Alpharetta transactions. The index has data from 1999 to now. It shows the names of buyers and sellers, the property address, liens, and the book and page where the deed is filed. This tool is free to search.

Land deeds, lien records, and real estate transfers filed in Fulton County all show up in the statewide index run by the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority. That means a deed for a home in Alpharetta is part of the same system used by all 159 counties in Georgia. You can run a name search and see every property transaction tied to that person across the whole state, not just in Alpharetta. The system works both ways. If an Alpharetta resident owns land in another county, that record shows up too.

Fulton County also handles property tax records. The Tax Commissioner keeps data on assessed values, tax bills, and payment history for every parcel in Alpharetta. This is useful if you want to know the value of a home or check whether taxes are current on a property. You can start that search on the Fulton County government website.

Voter Records in Alpharetta

Voter data is one of the most used parts of the Alpharetta residents directory. The Georgia My Voter Page lets you look up any registered voter by name, county, and date of birth. It shows the person's voting district, polling place, and registration status. This is a free tool. It works for Alpharetta voters and anyone else in Georgia.

Alpharetta voters register through the Fulton County Registration and Elections department. That office manages the voter rolls for all of Fulton County. If someone has moved to or from Alpharetta, the record will show the update once it goes through. Under Georgia law, voters must update their address at least 30 days before an election. The My Voter Page also shows when a person last voted and which elections they took part in. This can help confirm that someone lives in Alpharetta or has lived there in the past.

Full voter registration lists for Fulton County (which includes Alpharetta) can be purchased from the Georgia Secretary of State. These lists contain names, home addresses, mailing addresses, race, gender, registration dates, and last voting dates. The SOS office is at 2 MLK Jr. Drive, Suite 802 Floyd West Tower, Atlanta, Georgia 30334. Processing takes about two weeks.

Georgia Law and Alpharetta Records

Georgia's Open Records Act is the law that makes most Alpharetta records open to the public. O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-70 says the state has a strong policy in favor of open government and that public access should be encouraged. The law covers records held by both the City of Alpharetta and Fulton County agencies. If a record exists in a government office that serves Alpharetta, the law says you can request it.

Under O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-71, agencies must respond within three business days. If the records exist, they must hand them over or explain why they can't. Fees are capped at $0.10 per page for paper copies. Electronic records cost the price of the media used to store them. If the estimate goes over $500, the agency can ask for prepayment before starting the search. These rules apply to every office that holds public records for Alpharetta residents.

Some records are off limits. O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-72 lists the exemptions. Medical files, sealed court records, active law enforcement investigation notes, and data that would reveal Social Security numbers are all protected. But the law says these exemptions must be read narrowly. The vast majority of records in the Alpharetta residents directory are open for anyone to inspect and copy.
