The Finance Department, overseen by Chris Phillips, Assistant City Manager of Administration/Finance Director, is there to help. The Department also issues business registrations, privilege licenses for those selling beer and wine, and peddler licenses as well as sending out the water and sanitation bills.

This consists of overseeing all accounting, and fixed assets records, investment of funds, collection and disbursement processes, billing for services and administration of budgets. The Finance Department also helps other employees by providing financial data and information to internal customers, such as other City departments, contractors, the City Manager and City Council.
The Finance Department has won the prestigious Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association for over two decades. A copy of the City's Financial Statement/Audit is always available at Reidsville City Hall, 230 West Morehead Street, for viewing by the public during normal working hours.
