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.
