Responsibilities
The Treasurer's Office has come a long way since its inception in 1869. There has been an increasing focus over the years to become more efficient and effective in an effort to better serve the citizens of Pittsylvania County.
The primary functions of the Treasurer's Office fall into 2 major categories:
- The receipt, collection and safekeeping of revenue
- The appropriate accounting for the receipt and disbursement of revenue
We continually strive to improve the services we provide to the general public. The Treasurer's Office is a front-line representative of Pittsylvania County devoted to customer satisfaction and enhancing the public perception of the county.
Importance of Taxes
"Taxes are the life-blood of government, and their prompt and certain availability an imperious need."
