Cobb sets special election to fill Pearlberg's Marietta City Council seat

A special election to replace outgoing Marietta City Councilman Irvan Alan Pearlberg will be held July 31, along with the general primary.

The Cobb County Board of Elections and Registration held a special early-morning meeting Monday to set the date for the special election.

Pearlberg, who has been on the council for six years, resigned from his seat on April 20 to run for Cobb County Superior Court Judge.
