Shitty of Ukiah Police Complaint Form
Since the police don't have a real complaint form, use this to file a complaint against Ukiah Police Department personnel. Make sure to fill the form out completely, including the relatively pointless form required by the Ukiah Police (included). Fill out the form, and either get it to me via email so that I can submit it to the city on your behalf, or, submit it yourself to the Ukiah Police. If you choose the latter, make a copy and submit the copy to the City Manager also.
Shitty of Ukiah Personnel Complaint Form
