Become a part of the Village of McFarland team! We have a few fantastic, full-time employment opportunities including Media Producer (Communications and Technology Dept.), Police Officer, and Director of Public Works.

Though it may be hard to believe that the holiday season is upon us, we are gearing up for our annual partnership with Pellitteri's ThanksGIVING Back program to collect donations for local food pantries. Please consider donating to their virtual food drive throughout the month of November.

Save the date for Tuesday, November 29th as the Village will be holding a public information meeting at 6 p.m. in the McFarland Municipal Center. The purpose of the meeting is to obtain public input on the draft future land use map and related policies regarding the East Side Neighborhood Plan Update.

As leaves fall, consider adopting a storm drain! The McFarland Volunteer program and Department of Public Works have teamed up with Dane County's Ripple Effects in initiatives to help keep our lakes, rivers, and streams clean from leaves and debris.

Reminder: The last week for fall brush chipping curbside pickup is the week of November 7th. All brush should be curbside by 6 a.m. on Monday of the collection week, as the contractor will only make a single pass through each zone.

Make a Plan

• Only a few more days remain for in-person absentee voting in the Clerk's office. Thank you to our Administration team for the extended office hours so residents can vote on their own time.
• Prefer to vote on Election day? No problem! The polls are open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, November 8th.
• Don't forget that you can preview your ballot online.

Make it Count

• Check your registration status ahead of time. You can register in advanced at the Clerk's office up until 5 p.m. on Friday, November 4th, or register on Election Day.
• Just because you have a McFarland mailing address, does not necessarily mean you vote at the Municipal Center. Make sure to know the location of your polling place before you go!
• All voters will need to show a valid photo ID during in-person absentee voting to be provided a ballot.
