First of all I would like to applaud your decision to create the council. It will indeed give more power to the people.
Now, I read what the Council's authority is, and there is one thing that I'm not so sure about.
Basically, I think that the PWA should stay around. The current PW Reviewers are fairly unbiased and can do a good job. Personally, I think that you should go about the PW Inspection team the same way you go about the Gold Server manager.

Second, I have seen some of the plans that Konidias, one of the nominees, has. It concerns having mandatory lighting effects in graal. Which would not be a bad idea if it were not for the substantial slowdown that occurs on many computers when the lighting effects are enabled.
I'm not sure if people with this point of view could enforce such a measure, but it is a concern in that for some people it would make Graal nearly unplayable.

Also, what I think would be a good idea is that the council be larger. What would be nice is a council that had people that don't play just one or two servers, but have a person from each server. Of course, they would have to have a fully upgraded account too.

Anyhow, these are just some of my thoughts on the whole affair. Again, the system has potential, but as with any system it can be improved.
