Forming a Community Council is a natural and necessary step as Scroll’s ecosystem matures, a council that provides structure and continuity in decision-making and ensure diverse voices from across the community are heard, having transparency, inclusivity and maintaining alignment with Scroll’s core principles.

I feel this is a strong mechanism to keep the community engaged and to avoid centralization while still improving efficiency.

I would like to add a few suggestions though:

- Publish clear criteria and a timeline for council member selection to avoid ambiguity.
- Include term limits or rotation policies to keep fresh perspectives coming in over time.
- Regular public feedback session before the first slate of members is finalized.

Looking forward to seeing this move forward!
