Complaints

How Are We Doing?


This is an important question that every public service agency asks their customers.  The City of McFarland is committed to providing the best quality service to our community.  Oftentimes, citizens receive services from the city and have no idea how to make a comment, either positive or negatively.  The City of McFarland welcomes your comments as well as your concerns.  Should you have a comment or complaint, you may obtain a copy of our Complaint Form online or in person.
