Public-records requests go to Chilton County Sheriff's Office, Attn: Public Records, 500 2nd Avenue North, Clanton, Alabama 35045-3421. The sheriff form cites Alabama Code Sections 36-12-40 and 36-12-41 for public-records inspection and copying. The official form must be hand-delivered, and phone or fax requests are not accepted. The form contains a $20/$25 minimum-fee conflict, so confirm the current required cashier's check or money order amount before submitting. Final production costs must be paid before records are released, and the sheriff attempts to comply within 30 business days after receiving the final production cost.
The Chilton County Sheriff's Office also publishes an official app page with Google Play and Apple App Store download links. Use that app page as another sheriff-controlled public channel, but do not assume it provides app-only roster or records functions unless the sheriff confirms them.
