It sets specific numbers of elected members based on household size, ranging from three for small villages to nine for large ones. Additionally, the Act establishes a Village Council Fund and grants councils the power to collect property tax within their areas. It also outlines financial management rules, including appointing a treasurer and allowing government officials to inspect the accounts to ensure proper use of funds for the community's benefit.
