Introduction
The services offered by the public organizations might be defined as intangible and totality of systems, activities and benefits which assists to resolve the nonphysical problems. The villager's expectations on services gradually increased from the local organizations by reason of developing technologies and improvement of communications. In today's democratic governments to meet people and satisfy them to the community is important for People's participation in local governance and consequently it is important to organizational success. In rural areas, the range of services offered by local public organizations. Quantitative assessments of service quality can also identify gaps between citizens’ perceptions of public organization services and that of managers. Finally, service quality assessments can be used as a strategic tool for marketing public services. Hence the purpose of this study was to measure and analyze the rural satisfaction of local organizations in shirvan va Chardavol County.Theoretical bases: There are several approaches to measure satisfaction on which It pointed to the SERVQUAL and gap model. From that initial research, Parasuraman et al. developed a service quality instrument called SERVQUAL that consisted of 22 pairs of statements which measure customer expectations and perceptions of service delivered on a seven- or nine-point Likert scale. For each pair of statements, the gap difference between the two scores is calculated. The idea is that the service is good if perceptions meet or exceed expectations and problematic if perceptions fall below expectations.Research Statistical Unit, is all rural households over 20 villages in county. Research Statistical population is all members of the village council and the study was done by counting all. The overall 510 questionnaires were collected from 168 villages. The data were collected using a closed questionnaire. The survey was administered in 2012 with the help of three field assistants.The model of Service Quality Gaps was used to assess satisfaction and One sample Chi-square used to analysis and assessment of comments. Also Cluster analysis was used to compare and cluster the villager's satisfaction and one way ANOVA tests and Duncan's post hoc test was used to compare the satisfaction of villagers in different counties. Pearson correlation was performed to identify which service quality dimensions were correlated strongly with citizen satisfaction. Data from 445 valid questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS version 16.

Also there is a negative correlation between index of distance access and the public consensus.
Conclusion
General results of the study indicate low satisfaction with the quality of local organizations in the city of Shirvan and Chrdavl villagers and this result showed the importance of local organizations to provide comprehensive services. Especially the spatial distribution of rural satisfaction, showed that Dissatisfaction in underserved sub district (Zrdlan) is broader and more perceptible.Suggestions: One of the research results is that the index of rural Enjoyment is important in explanation of the villagers Satisfactory. Although at first glance this result seems reasonable and acceptable, but expected that successful projects can make it difficult to provide Hierarchical Regionalization. Because the main goal of such schemes, the economic and efficient use of infrastructure services and provide higher level services to all villages to a point, not logical nor scientific.So it seems despit some deficiencies in the services area, rural views to the functioning of such institutions must change as well.
