Every unit is supposed to have a commissioner; however, most councils have a hard time getting people to step up to become commissioners. In councils that do not have enough commissioners the method is to assign commissioners only to problem/struggling units. To see if you have a commissioner your key 3 should go into the my.scouting.org and check the unit dashboard to see if a unit commissioner has been assigned (it will be noted in the same panel as your unit key 3, advancement chair, etc ... . If you have not seen a commissioner in years it might be because of lack of commissioners, your unit might be viewed as high functioning, lack of responding back to commissioner contacts by your key 3, or simply your key 3 telling the commissioner that they do not want him at any meetings. My unit has a new commissioner and he attends every unit committee meeting. He basically just sits there and takes notes unless someone asks him a question. Our old commissioner disappeared and we had not seen him in like 4 years. -
Methinks you're overthinking this. Having worked in DC-adjacent positions over the years, I submit this to be among the least of worries/priorities. -
Our troop hasn't seen a council rep in several years. How often do you see yours? When they show up, do they meet with the committee members or just the key3 -

Did you get an email with 4 pdf documents attached? The email had the "reconsideration form" on it. That is the one that if you contested the amount, you fill out the form and send in the $1,000. It was explained to me that this was for the review committee to go back over all your documentation and listen or read your reasons. The 4 documents were: 1) a calculation form, 2) a trust review - claim notice, 3) a release form titled Exhibit B (this one had to be notarized so I went to my banker) and, 4) a Signature Attestation Form. We may have had different attorneys, but I would think the forms and procedures would be the same. In fact, I had an email this past Monday from the settlement folks with an online questionnaire to fill out, but I could not get it to open, so I called. This nice lady explained that it dealt with "liens" . She explained that that meant, did I have any liens against anyone involved with this, which I did not. She would then forward my claim and I got an email on Tuesday that I should receive the first check in 2 weeks. I've never been involved with anything like this, so I don't understand the disbursement. I am to receive a 1.5% check (of the total) right away, then other checks to follow. It appears to be coming to a conclusion, but until I have the check(s) in hand, I'm not making any plans. When I saw the about $500,00 amount, I think I was in sort of a shock, as to what we would do with this. I've since calmed down, talked to out financial manager, and am just waiting. Other than this, I don't know what I can do to help. I'd be glad to send you these forms with my personal information removed. Here again, we may have different attorneys, if that matters. -
