Annual Commissioner Service Plan

This Annual Commissioner Service Plan gives specific purposes for regular and supportive contact with units by the commissioner staff. This plan encourages commissioner visits and guides unit activities toward being Quality Units.
This plan follows the natural flow of adding new members, purchase of uniforms, preparation for summer camp, unit program planning, and replacement of adult leadership. The plan includes the following commissioner functions:

A. The unit serving executive meets with his/her commissioner team to evaluate the units in the district. (This should be a part of the goal-setting process in January.) Units meeting quality unit requirements would normally receive a grade of "good". Units not meeting these requirements will be rated as "fair" or "poor" based on the challenges this unit will face in achieving quality status.

B. For every unit in the fair or poor category, a plan is developed by the unit serving executive and his commissioner team based on how this can be brought back to quality unit status. This plan is shared with the council commissioner and the staff leader for the executive. These plans should be kept on file by the registrar. Specific action should be identified monthly and progress reported. Priority should be placed on units with "life threatening" problems.

C. Twice a year, unit status should be compared to the last report. "Fair" or "poor" units not changing in status should be given immediate attention by the unit serving executive's staff leader with help from the appropriate assistant district commissioner or district commissioner.
