The headquarters of Cobb County Elections and Registration is moving from its current location on Whitlock Avenue to 995 Roswell St. NE, Marietta, GA 30060.
The new headquarters will be near Cobb Parkway, and about a block from Marietta’s well-known landmark the Big Chicken.
The office will be closed from Wednesday, July 27 through Friday, July 29 for the move, and the new office will be open for business on Monday August 1.
The hours of operation are Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
The Courier asked Cobb County Elections Director Janine Eveler the reason for the move, and she said the department had outgrown its old headquarters.
She said the previous headquarters will house other county facilities, but no decision has been yet made about what will be there.
