The North Fulton Community Improvement District (CID) is spending an estimated $400,000 to landscape the interchange, creating a “gateway” to North Fulton and the CID. The CID is made up of commercial properties along Ga. 400, from Mansell Road north to McGinnis Ferry Road.
Piedmont Landscape Contractors, LLC was awarded the estimated $400,000 project, following a competitive bid process that began in late December 2009.
“After reviewing all the bid documents, we were fortunate to have several good choices to complete this project under budget,” said Brandon Beach, (top right photo) Executive Director of the North Fulton CID. “Piedmont was selected because they demonstrated exceptional value and vast experience with projects of this scale and magnitude.”
“Our goal is to create gateway entrances to North Fulton,” Beach continued. “These beautification projects help brand our District, making it more attractive for business and for the people who live, work and play in North Fulton.” All CID contractors are required to choose materials from a pre-approved list that meets the sustainability and branding requirements outlined in Blueprint North Fulton, the CID’s master plan.
With planting season ending on March 15, timing is critical. Landscape installation will begin in February and will be completed this fall.
