Office of the Treasurer
About the office of the Treasurer
The elected position of Treasurer was created in the Virginia Constitution of 1870. The Treasurer's independent status as an elected official ensures that local funds will be collected, invested and disbursed, by an officer that reports directly to the people. The county treasurer is the Chief Banking Officer (CBO) for their localities, collecting revenues, local fees and other monies, and making payments on behalf of the local government. Among other additional duties, the Treasurer is also the county's Chief Investment Officer (CIO).

Our office is responsible for overseeing the county's daily cash management, investments, collection of various taxes and fees, and ensuring all disbursements are properly appropriated and budgeted by the county board of supervisors.
