Tip: Have your name, phone number, email, and your full question ready before you start the form so you can submit it in one pass.
Want your question featured in a public Mailbag article? Focus on "why" and "how" questions about county operations. These tend to get fuller explanations that work well in a column format. Straightforward factual questions can still be submitted, but the county may answer those directly rather than publishing them.
Before you hit submit, know this: sending a question through PittCo Mailbag doesn't guarantee an answer. The county may not respond publicly in a Mailbag article, and they may not reply to you directly either.
- Name the exact topic - Start your question by saying it’s about Pittsylvania County Jail and what you’re trying to understand.
- Add the details that matter - Include any relevant dates, locations, or other identifiers that help them understand your situation, and keep the question specific.
- Complete every required field - Use your First Name, Last Name, Phone Number, Email Address, and type your question in the “Your Question” box.
- Ask it as a “why” or “how” when you can - Those questions are more likely to fit the Mailbag’s public Q&A format about how county government works.
Reminder: Even if your question is clear and detailed, the county may not answer it publicly - or directly to you.
